Been scrolling through AI discussions lately and stumbled across this fascinating chart showing the emotional rollercoaster we’ve all been on with AI development over the past few years. The graph perfectly captures what someone described as the “it’s so over” to “we’re so back” vibes that seem to define our relationship with artificial intelligence progress.

Looking at those peaks and valleys, it really does feel like we’re all passengers on some sort of collective emotional pendulum. One minute everyone’s convinced we’ve hit the dreaded “AI wall” and progress has stagnated, the next minute there’s a breakthrough that has us all believing the singularity is just around the corner.
