Just over the last few years it went virtual reality, blockchain and crypto crap, and now chatbots.

What will the next fad be? I'd like to know so I can convince one of these VC ghouls that they should give me money for vaporware.

Transparent displays. Samsung and LG were showing off transparent screens at CES this year. Transparent TVs will be extremely expensive and not practical at all but they look cool so it will be the new techbro status symbol.

That actually seems cool. I miss the little flip phone I had as a teen. I hate these clunky open screen monstrosities we have now.
