I’m reminded of people back in the day using map/reduce via hadoop to solve issues that could just as well be done with postgres or even sqlite and a sprinkling of sql, because that’s how google did it and no-one has any idea what “big data” really is.
Similarly, turning simple network applications into a hideous armada of microservices on a distributed kubernetes cluster, because that’s how google did it and people outside of giant tech companies don’t really know what that sort of scalability is for.
And here we are in the age of readily accessible neural network software. This too will pass, and we’ll get a new sledgehammer for walnut-opening in due course.
