Those memorable demos were called things like "The Mother of all Demos" not "Cute things [...]"

Superficially 'bad' demos also work like this.

Getting people talking about your stuff because they're motivated enough to have a pineapple-on-pizza type of argument over the demo is canny and bigtechs do this deliberately.

"Did anyone notice <demo>? LOL and WTF" is why we're communicating now.
