Sure, there is a lot happening right now, but although technologies such as trains reshaped society, society did not come to only consist of railways.
It feels like this whole site was manufactured to convince us that generative AI is a rocketship right now? While we might be basing a rocketship right now, to draw that line up at this point is total bullshit. the pc is real. the internet is real. the smartphone is real. its hard for me to even wrap my head around how you compare generative AI to these things. At this point I don't think we are far enough time to allow hindsight to let us see what the "thing" is that we should be tracking. Its not "generative ai"

why no tulip S-curve? no crypto "currency" S-curve, just a bunch of hogwash? no AR/VR? no aviation?
