This happens all the time.

Once it was spices. Then poppies. Modern art. The .com craze. Those blockchain ape images. Blockchain. Now LLM.

All of these had a bit of true value and a whole load of bullshit. Eventually the bullshit disappears and the core remains, and the world goes nuts about the next thing.

Exactly. I’ve seen this enough now to appreciate that oft repeated tech adoption curve. It seems like we are in “peak expectations” phase which is immediately followed by the disillusionment and then maturity phase.
