Everyone knows it's mostly bullshit, but that _someone_ is going to end up coming out as the Amazon-level winner.
Every single one of these "fake it till you make it" AI CEO/Founders are betting they are the Amazon.com and not the Pets.com... but if they are the Pets.com then what is the downside?
The CEO of pets.com certainly didn't end up out on the streets for being the biggest disaster of one of the largest bubbles and effectively burning billions of investor dollars (including institutions investing pensions and retirements funds).
