    It’s bubbling up.

    Think of it as a pan full pasta in boiling water: it’s quiet for a long time and you forget about it, and suddenly it foams up and overflows like crazy and your cooktop is a mess.

    Right now the water is still heating up.

    I think we’re in the awkward teen years of AI. From like 2015 to 2022 was like the baby years where everyone was amazed at that cool new toy. Then like 2022 to 2030 are the angsty teen years where it kinda works, kinda doesn’t, seems kinda pissed off at its parents. Then 2030 to 2050 will be the big AI adult years where it actually delivers and we start seeing society fundamentally change, personal robotics, automated society and the whole nine. Then 2050+ it may grow into something much more than we imagined for better or worse.

    Personally I think they way over promised. AI development has been bonkers fast but it’s just not there yet. With a lack of regulation and halfway AI most people are pretty disgruntled. The fact that people are even making posts like this is insane. Like shit didn’t really start popping off until 2017, it’s been 9 years and we want strong AI already when in like 2015 most people thought we wouldn’t even be at this level of AI until like 2100.
