Brainstation is a web dev/data science bootcamp. This article is not written to speak to you, it's written to market Brainstation as the reader's ticket to a big $ career in Toronto.
Hundreds of people move to the city daily as job opportunities are not as plentiful outside the Greater Toronto Area. These could be international students, fresh college grads, people looking for a career change, etc. They've heard of blockchain and AI just enough to worry that they'll be left behind if they don't join "the tech industry".
So of course Brainstation will mention AI and Blockchain. These articles are lead generations pieces for their training programs. For SEO keyword purposes alone, they would have mentioned it.
Stopped reading here. When will this blockchain hype finally die?
