I think that the disparity comes between people that are too in the weeds believing that their use cases apply to everyone. The reality is this world is made up of people with a wide array of different needs and AI is yet to proliferate into all usage applications.
Sure some of this comes from a lack of education.
But similar to crypto these movements only have value if the value is widely perceived. We have to work to continue to educate, continue to question, continue to understand different perspectives. All in favor of advancing the movement and coming out with better tech.
I am a supporter of both but I agree with the reference in the article to both becoming echo chambers at times. This is a setback we need to avoid.

The difference in the AI case is that companies that are actually able to use it to boost productivity significantly will start to outcompete those who don't.
That's why, unlike crypto/blockchain, so many mainstream companies are pouring money into AI. It's not FOMO so much as fear of extinction.
