Imagine, imagine, imagine if the #AI hype was real...

The video critiques the ongoing cycle of artificial intelligence hype seen at tech developer conferences. The presenter notes how events shift from shipping dates and live demos to futuristic marketing concepts, referencing examples like Google Duplex, LaMDA, Humane AI Pin, and Rabbit R1. He warns that overpromising leads directly into the trough of disillusionment and calls for companies to return to shipping real products.
The endless AI hype cycle
Keynote presentations frequently prompt audiences to imagine future AI capabilities, creating feeds filled with impressive demo clips.
Remembering Google Duplex and LaMDA
The presenter recalls past overhyped demos like Google Duplex booking appointments and LaMDA conversing as Pluto, noting a recurring pattern with devices like Humane AI Pin and Rabbit R1.
The hype cycle and shipping real products
The host highlights how marketing mockups lead straight into the trough of disillusionment, advising skepticism when products lack live demos and release dates.
You can imagine Gemini and Chrome working together.
You can imagine. Now just imagine. And you can imagine.
And you can imagine what. If your feed is anything like mine, it's a nonstop highlight reel of the AI magic. Mind-blowing videos, tools, demos. The future looks amazing. But remember Google Duplex, the AI that was supposed to book your appointments back in 2018?
Hi, I'm calling to book a woman's haircut.
Or Lambda in 2021, the AI that could supposedly chat with Pluto? I sense your excitement. Ask me anything. There's a pattern here, like with Humane AI Pin and Rabbit R1. They dazzle us with futuristic mockups and marketing videos as new innovations like AI arrive to drive high expectations, just to end up in the valley of disillusionment before finding out what's real and what will be shipped and what isn't. Here's the takeaway: when a product has no live demo and no launch date, be skeptical.
It might never see the light of day. And for companies, let the developers and consumers imagine and dream up what's possible by just making the tools available.
