Should we all be worried tech is going to be where the most future growth is?

So I get it you’ve heard that AI is gonna take everyone’s jobs and it’s a little overhyped in the short term, but the amount of economic growth we’re poised for in various tech related fields is just insane. I reread Marc Andreessen’s “software is eating the world” essay from a decade ago and honestly not only is it spot on but the trends are only accelerating. Looking at the long term view, we’re in the infancy of so many new areas (big data, cloud storage/computing, machine learning) that I feel like I’d be dumb not to try and get as connected to fintech as I possibly can for fear of missing out on all the growth. I mean, we’re finance people, we know the PE ratios lol. Thoughts? Do you think it’s overhyped or a golden opportunity if you can pull it off?
