My take: There will be clear beneficiaries of this technology and certain sectors of the economy stand to benefit more than others.

A lot of grifters treating it as a get rich quick scheme trying hard to hype it up and sell “courses” on it, reminds me of crypto then NFTs. But sure it will have its uses.
