"where almost the entire tech industry has bought in on a technology sold at a vastly-discounted rate, heavily-centralized and subsidized by big tech. What happens when the entire tech industry relies on the success of a kind of software that only loses money, and doesn鈥檛 create much value to begin with?"

So far, some organisations are differentiating themselves by having nothing to do with the #MOLE Training craze. Or developing modest, fully libre versions of the tech in-house, for a few specific features appropriate to its few strengths (eg auto-translation). When the bubble finally bursts (soon, perhaps?), these orgs will come out of it with their credibility intact.

Meanwhile those that leaned into the hype will have to rebuild theirs from scratch. Looking at you @gitlab.
