Not really. Mainstream media publishes something about AI at least once a week. It might not have adoption in the everyday life, just like most tools are known, but only fully explored by their niche. There's a lot of overhype, A LOT. And many startups are reinventing the wheel in a more expensive way just to ride the wave, but unlike crypto, LLMs are tools that can solve more "dev/user" level problems, unlike crypto, that was supposed to solve a "global financial system" problem, and since that's too hard to grasp, people used it as investments, because it's closer to their real lives and needs.
