Agreed. And when did 'disruption' become a good thing? Good for the founders' pockets, bad for everyone else.

While I agree to some extent I also beg to differ. How many of us happily use Google or Whatsapp for example. But leave the software world and look at startups in the hardware space really trying to solve challenges in the environmental sector. Often either completely ignored despite breakthrough technology just because another flavor of the month like AI comes along. Most of their founders I wager did not start hoping for a big pay check. Just saying.
