I think we're in a "lightbulb" moment: the tech has gotten good and convenient enough that a lot of people are having the same ideas. I mean, heck, I don't know anything about AI or art and I was still able to make my notebook. There's also been a bunch of paid solutions submitted to HN, too, as people try to find ways to build products off this.
The great thing is that the space is big and crazy enough that even if a bunch of people independently make something, everything they make will be different in interesting ways. I'm just focusing on making it as simple as possible, to the point where I don't even have an option to have different width and height. I give it maybe a month before someone makes a Colab that blows both of ours out of the water.
(I should really start aggregating the notebooks, so people who enjoyed mine and want to try all the other cool ones can see them all in one place)
