AI Hype Accelerates Again- MS DOS Era?

1/ Hype vs Time: The Silicon Valley Cycle

Silicon Valley runs on cycles.

Crypto.
VR.
Web3.
Now AI.

Every wave feels like the end of the world or the beginning of a new one.

If you can survive the downcycle, you usually own the upcycle.

2/ Chinese AI Video Model Wows the World

Every few months the bar jumps again.

Hyper-realistic AI video.
Cinematic quality.
Text to film.

We have said it before, but this time it feels real. Entire movie studios could be automated.

What does that mean for film schools like USC?
Do they become AI orchestration schools instead of traditional production pipelines?

The cost of imagination is collapsing.

3/ AI Agents Are Progressing Rapidly

Agent to agent communication is just the beginning.

When agents start negotiating with each other, coordinating tasks, managing workflows, and handling real objectives without humans micromanaging every step… that is a new phase.

The companies building agent workflows today are laying down rails for the next decade.

4/ The MS-DOS Phase of AI

We are early.

Clunky interfaces. Command line energy.
Power users only.

You see it with Moltbook. You see it with Openclaw. The hype is loud, but the UX still feels like MS-DOS.

That is a good sign.

The tools are raw.
The leverage is insane.
And the GUI moment has not even happened yet.

Builder energy is unrivaled right now.
