I think I see an AI #bubble forming in my inbox

I'm getting daily daily pitches from AI startups I’ve never heard of, from PR peeps and agencies I’ve never worked with before.

Their PR isn't pretty because the startups don’t have a lot to say and their pitches tend to follow a formula of mentioning the VC that funded them, the fact their founder worked at Big Tech companies, and their intent to revolutionize/democratize something.

If I'm right, I'm in for about 2 years of this junk
