Calling electric cars part of a hype cycle feels a little disingenuous to me. Either we get rid of cars, society ends, or all cars go electric. Considering that option 1 causes option 2 unless there’s a revolutionary tech breakthrough, I think it’s safe to assume electric cars are the future. Also I don’t forsee a peak in hype for them, there’s generally a lot of resistance to electric cars
Aside from the random dig at electric cars, I largely agree with this article. I don’t think the chicken coop machine learning example is quite clear to non-technical people, but I think it’s probably appropriate for the lemmy userbase
You’re right, electric cars aren’t really the same. That being said, the hype was pretty high about 5 years ago and these days, there are articles written (though largely incorrect) about the waning demand for EVs. At this point, the hype has decreased and eventually there will be a resurgence in demand. EVs are absolutely the future, I own one and love it.
