When you strip away all the hype around AI projects, you realize many are just repackaging old technology. At their core, they're essentially wrapping database systems in new packaging and calling it innovation. Real differentiation? That's the hard part everyone seems to skip.

It's just a shell change to sell stories. They slap an AI layer on the database and dare to ask for sky-high funding. LOL

You're absolutely right. This is the common problem in the current Web3 and AI circles. Packaging and re-packaging, but the underlying technology remains the same. Truly differentiated projects are few and far between; most are just hyping concepts.

It's the same old trick again, using a database shell to sell AI... I've seen through it.

Old technology wrapped in an AI shell and claiming to be revolutionary—it's truly ridiculous... Real capable projects have long been out, and what's left are all PPT innovations.

That's right. These days, AI projects are everywhere, but it's really just putting a new shell around old databases and claiming innovation. The truly competitive stuff, on the other hand, no one wants to bother with.

Once you peel back a layer, you'll realize that a bunch of AI projects are just database re-skinning techniques, and the truly differentiated ones are actually avoided by most people.
