The valuations of today’s tech companies are extremely high, somewhat reminiscent of the internet bubble of the 1990s. This is why some say we are experiencing a new AI bubble. But this time is different. During the dot-com era, having a website alone could attract investment and receive a high valuation—even if it had little real value. AI, however, is not the same. Whether in daily life or in professional fields like design and coding, AI offers practical, tangible benefits that people can truly experience. Because of this, there are still clear differences between the two eras.
#AI
AI has increased our work efficiency. Tasks that used to take four or five days can now be finished in just an hour. This is a good thing, but on the other hand, it makes our hearts more impatient. Since things can be done so fast, we start wanting them to be even faster—faster and faster. This impatience affects our work, then our daily life, and eventually even the state of our spiritual life.
