Engadget Podcast: The AI Hype Train Stalled in 2024
This week, we’re taking a step back to reflect on the past year and assess where things stand. Unfortunately, it’s been a disappointing ride when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI). As we kick off the new year, it’s clear that the once-hyped AI revolution has lost steam.
When 2024 began, there was an unprecedented amount of excitement surrounding AI advancements. However, this enthusiasm quickly fizzled out as reality set in – many AI features were found to be underwhelming or even useless. It seems that companies like Microsoft and Apple are now trying to push these half-baked concepts onto unsuspecting users.
As we move forward into 2025, the tech industry is bracing itself for a potentially rough ride. With AI failing to deliver on its promise, it’s unclear what new innovations will come to the forefront.
Join us as we dive deeper into this topic and explore what lies ahead in our latest podcast episode.
