Back in the Bitcoin hype days, there were new posts here every single day about the latest and greatest Bitcoin thing. Everyone was using it. It was going to take over the world. Remember all the people on this very site that sincerely thought fiat currency was going away and we'd be doing all of our transactions with Bitcoin? How'd that work out?
It feels exactly the same. Now the big claims are that coding jobs are going away, or if you at least don't use it you'll be left behind. People are posting AI stories every day. Everyone is using it. People say it's going to transform the industry.
Back then there was greater motivation to evangelize Bitcoin, as you could get rich by convincing people to buy in, and it's just to a lesser degree now. People who work for AI companies (like the author), posting AI stuff, trying to drum up more people to give them views/clicks, buy their products.
And of course you'll have people replying to this trying to make the case for why AI coding is already a thing, when in reality those posts are once again going to be carbon copies of similar comments from the Bitcoin days "hey, you're wrong, I bought pizza with Bitcoin last night, it's already taking over, bud!"
