I’d argue that this news is over-blown. The project has more than a solid and honorable track record with insanely talented engineers behind it. AI is a new technology that is not going anywhere. I would put my faith into their decisions to improve this project by whatever means they think are best.

The truth is most commenters are not technically skilled to evaluate or critique their decisions. If GOS team, who again would be at the top % in the field, feel that this can elevate the project, should we not give them the benefit of the doubt?

So where are all the 3D TVs? Where’s the Nintendo Virtual Boy? Betamax? Google Wave? Google+? NFTs?

Oh not transformational enough?

Ok then how long did it take electric vehicles to come back after The fossil fuel industry killed them in like 1920?

Oh here’s a good one: thalidomide. That one went away for good.

How about the hole in the ozone layer?

Sorry, AI is only a foregone conclusion because apparently everyone’s had their consent beautifully manufactured to an extreme degree.
