>The current AI wave has been compared (by sama) to electricity and sometimes transistors. AI is just going to be in all the products.

Sorry, but you have to be beyond thick to believe any of this.

Ya absolutely wild take.

can the world and tech survive fruitfully without AI? yes. can the world and tech survive without electricity and transistors - not really. the modern world would come crashing down if transistors and electricity disappeared overnight. if AI disappeared over night the world might just be a better place.

That might be because AI is new so we don't rely on it. The world got on for a long time before electrical engineering came about.
