There probably a koan for it, but separate the commercial from the noncommercial.

I'm excited for these emerging technologies, but I don't care about any of the products people want to sell based on them. I've spent the past 27 years developing zero-effort self-filtering against spam and hucksters, so I'm not even aware of any AI startups, just as I can't tell you the names of any Bitcoin exchanges. That's just not in my sphere, and I'm not missing out.

Hunker down and have fun. It's incredibly accessible, and you likely have more than you need to get started making it work for you.
