I agree, we are in a muddy period, tech is moving so fast that trends will not last here. "AI" is just a buzzword now, over the next years "AGI" or "ASI" are also going to be more buzzwords used to pander towards the general public.
WE already know that if you've created the so called "next bitcoin" you do not have to market it as such. It has to have a legit use case, as well as mass adaptability.
I personally will be watching, however ZK, RWA and utility based coins will begin to separate themselves from the rest.
Yeah, whoever jumps on the next hype train first is going to come out on top — especially if they catch a promising airdrop. The key is not to confuse 'AI' in the name with actual technological value.
