This is what all of those thinkfluencer salesdorks on LinkedIn don't get. If your Big Idea is 'let's do the same thing as before, but scaled!' then you don't have a Big Idea.

You're pretty much just rolling the dice and hoping that THIS TIME you were the early adopters of bitcoin / first-issue comics / Beanie Babies / tulip bulbs / etc.

One thing I am looking forward to on the road of AGI is watching these people repeatedly stick butter knives into electric sockets as they're trivially undermined not just by the technology, but the groupthink of their equally unresourceful peers. And they Just. Won't. Get It. Buncha Wile E. Coyotes who keep using the exact same scheme.
