We've shown people so many times and so forcefully that they're now actively complaining about it. It's a meme.
The problem isn't getting your Killer A I App in front of eyeballs. The problem is showing something useful or necessary or wanted. AI has not yet offered the common person anything they want or need! The people have seen what you want to show them, they've been forced to try it, over and over. There is nobody who interacts with the internet who has not been forced to use AI tools.
And yet still nobody wants it. Do you think that they'll love AI more if we force them to use it more?
And yet still nobody wants it.
Nobody wants the one-millionth meeting transcription app and the one-millionth coding agent constantly, sure.
It a developer creativity issue. I personally believe the creativity is so egregious, that if anyone were to release a killer app, the entirety of the lackluster dev community will copy it into eternity to the point where you’ll think that that’s all AI can do.
This is not a great way to start off the morning, but gosh darn it, I really hate that this profession attracted so many people that just want to make a buck.

You know what was the killer app for the Wii?
Wii Sports. It sold a lot of Wiis.
You have to be creative with this AI stuff, it’s a requirement.
