Imagine Being a Business Owner in the 90s
Imagine being a business owner in the 90s and thinking, “the internet is over-hyped, it’s not going to fundamentally change how we do business".
Recent Comment on LinkedIn
I had a comment like this, on one of my LinkedIn posts a few weeks ago, something like “AI is having its social media moment”.
- As if to say, it’s having some kind of temporary surge in interest or excitement that’s hype-driven, or a fad even.
Sundar Pichai's Perspective
Sundar Pichai (CEO of Google) recently said:
"I've always thought of AI as the most profound technology humanity is working on — more profound than fire or electricity or anything that we've done in the past”.
