    It’s not quite blockchain. It is incredibly useful in a broad range of applications, and has genuinely changed how millions of people work. Sure it’s not the magic bullet wall street thinks it is, but my work has been improved immensely through the use of generative AI. Especially with uniquely challenging software problems and niche questions.

    I think it’ll be similar to VR. Extremely useful and interesting, but over-hyped and not going to penetrate our lives as much as most people think.

      My mom never used VR, but she happily talks to GPT4. From that perspective I think mindshare in the broader population will be significantly higher than VR (even if it doesn’t live up to the hype VC/Wallstreet machine).
