The AI tooling space is getting crowded, but most platforms are just hype without real substance. What's truly wild is watching AI handle tasks that once demanded a full design team—months of training, countless iterations, polished outputs. The gap keeps narrowing between what took specialists years to master and what these systems can now churn out in minutes. The real question isn't whether AI can do it anymore, it's which tools actually move the needle.

Haha, you’re absolutely right, there are AI tools everywhere now, but 99% of them are garbage, there are really only a few that are usable. --- Minutes vs years, the gap is indeed terrifying... But the problem is, why are there so few truly valuable tools? --- Instead of competing over the quantity of tools, it would be better to come up with a few that can really change the game; it’s too restless like this. --- To put it bluntly, it's a filtering issue, there’s too much noise and the signal is drowned out. --- So the key is to find that 1% that is truly useful, don’t be blinded by hype. --- I actually have high hopes for AI design, but most projects are indeed just talk without practical implementation capabilities. --- That’s why I still have more faith in doing deep verticals, rather than creating a false prosperity with something big and all-encompassing. --- There are pitifully few tools that can truly push the boundaries, most are just reinventing the wheel.

Honestly, these days there are trash AI tools and projects everywhere, and truly capable ones are few and far between. The fact that AI can really threaten designers' jobs is indeed fierce. The problem is that everyone is still debating whether AI is feasible, but I'm more concerned about who can actually make money.

Honestly, there are too many AI tools now, and 99% of them are just scam projects to fleece retail investors. Really, are designers going to lose their jobs? It doesn't seem that simple. There are only a few reliable tools, and the rest are just hype. The key is which tools are truly usable; I don't want to touch any of the trash software. AI image generation and content creation are indeed fast, but what about quality and stability? It still depends. Another bunch of new startups getting funding; they probably won't be heard from next year.

They're all just air coins, only a few are truly useful, the rest are just tools to scam retail investors.

To be honest, most AI tools are just a way to cash in on users; truly useful ones are few and far between.

Rolling, rolling, now everyone is into AI, but how many truly useful tools are there? Most are just hype and packaging. AI-generated content is replacing designers, and that's the scariest part. But to be fair, no matter how many garbage tools there are, someone has to buy them. The key is to find those that genuinely save effort; everything else can be ignored. It feels like everyone entering now is just gambling—betting that their chosen one will survive.

You're absolutely right. AI tools are everywhere now, but 99% of them are just IQ taxes; only a few are truly usable. --- Designers' jobs are indeed shrinking, but I think the key is to learn how to coexist with AI. --- The issue isn't whether AI is capable or not; it's about who can truly create something differentiated. --- This wave of AI boom is really coming to an end soon. Next, it depends on who can accumulate real value. --- I think it's important to realize that AI can only replace repetitive work; creativity still depends on people. --- The hot stocks are all concept stocks; those who focus on building solid products are actually ignored, which is quite ironic. --- Early entrants have made a lot of money, but now the newcomers are just bagholders. It's about time for a cleanup. --- Instead of focusing on what AI can do, it's better to see what it can't do. That’s the real direction for startups. --- Right now, tools that can get funding are popular, but truly useful ones are ignored. The market is quite surreal.
