Lots of points on AI is just a "tool" and that's where I think misconception and misunderstanding will be most devastating for some.

- Yes, engines did replace horses, it was utility revolution

- Yes, computers replacing pen, paper and calculators

- Yes, internet has revolutionized access, borderless business, communication and digital transformation

All the inventions have been about tool replacing another tool, but AI trajectory does not really fit those models.

Maybe AI utilization today is giving the impression of tool and productivity revolution but it's the only entity challenging the actual human organ. It's brain replacing brain and that's the unprecedented and unfamiliar territory.

Eventually this new brain will get its own limbs too!

This article resonated with me, especially since I've noticed the fund raising hoopla's in my circle has dramatically dropped. Either investors are tightening the belt so founder-investor fit has crossed into the realm of disillusionment

better, more, screenshots or video walkthrough would help why something like this is interesting/needed.

The flood of new tools is truly overwhelming there isn't enough time to setup all of them to validate the marketing claims against actual functionality and benefit

There's also https://roundtable.now

I've had great experience using it for research, debates and constructive criticism. Usually give it a business idea or some tool i'm thinking of creating and then let 4 or 5 models debate it to a go-to-market strategy

When something is "free", YOU are the product!

I had a SaaS project last year with massive HTMX code base. Code was big and pain was even bigger. A few months back I attempted to convert parts of it to DataStar but the introduction of premature "DataStar Pro" and putting pretty basic but essential utilities behind the paywall killed the vibe. I scrapped the idea and wouldn't go near it.

Having just watched the Vite documentary both HTMX and DataStar have a higher order mission to challenge dominant incumbent JS frameworks like React/NextJS. HTMX is struggling and in my opinion Datastar is DOA!

Win the adoption, win the narrative then figure out cashing in. People behind Vite won the JS bundling race, they now have a new company Void(0) and raised venture money. NextJS solved major React pain points, gave it away for free and built a multi-billion$ infrastructure to host it.
