Something can be both a good development and overhyped grift. You have to keep in mind that for a lot of people and their businesses, the grift is literally the entire angle. Not building a technology. Not building a 100 year old business. But to get rich fast as you can while you have the opportunity, tech and business be damned. Ironically, both the real technologists and the grifters benefit from this preaching of misleading overstatements and half truths from the rooftop. It’s therefore tolerated almost as a funding mechanism for the industry at large. Mac os 15, same as it ever was now with AI under the hood. Sounds like a good seller to me.
