OP here to clarify: With AI Hype Train I meant the fact that so many people are slapping AI onto anything just to make it sound cool like at this point I wouldn't be surprised if a bidet company slapped AI into one of their bidets...
I'm not saying AI is gonna go anywhere or doesn't have legitimate uses but currently there is money in AI and everybody wants to get AI into their things to be cool & capitalize on the hype:
Same thing with NFT's and blockchains. The technology behind it has it's legitimate uses but not everyone is slapping it onto things like a few years ago just to make fast bank.
Rumor has it that a certain super-rich tech mogul has am AI bidet/toilette in his house, that has to be connected to the Internet before it will work. When the Internet glitched (the site went off-line) and lost Internet connectivity, he could not flush the toilette manually.
