I'm seeing people submit a lot of them these days. Great way to kill your startup.

Is .ai the new “cool” TLD for startups now or has that fad passed already too?

Oh! It is still very much on. I used to occasionally order missed school tiffin backups (in India) from a pretty good school tiffin supplier. This year, too, I tried to set it up as a backup. Their `.in` domain re-directed to their new AI-ed `.ai` domain.
