The A.I. hype = crypto gold rush v2. Current strategy: create a service that can bolt on the OpenAI API in some unique or helpful way, charge people a fee/sub for it and make as much money as possible before a competitor comes in or big tech integrates your idea into their core product.

@kimonostereo Relieved to see that I’m not the only one who is not immediately breathless at all of this hype.

@kimonostereo I think there’s something very new with AI, but I agree that products looking to capitalize quickly by only repurposing someone else’s API aren’t going to last. Instead it will be a tool that can make existing (already useful) products better.

@manton Agreed. It’s very boring to see Product Hunt full of apps bolting on some sort of A.I. daily, but I guess that should be expected.

@SimonWoods it was interesting at first, but now every single new app has the word A.I. in it.

@manton @kimonostereo Agreed, Manton. Your own implementation of this with Micro.blog’s podcasts is a good example of careful and tasteful use.

Yeah Scott, it’s sad to see people rushing desperately to use tabloid-style tactics purely for attention. I can’t think of any way in which it ends well for the people involved.
