It absolutely is a hoax, because a number of companies are doing shady things like: - Selling products based on AI capabilities that do not yet and/or will never exist in the product - Adding "AI" to the name of product lines with very little core functionality based on AI - Rebranding non-generative algorithms as AI (e.g., SQL queries and if statements == AI) - Changing the name and/or domain name of the company to imply AI capability I look at companies with heavy trend-based advertising like C3.ai, who changed their name from a previous trend (C3.IoT), and then IBM that rode marketing waves related to Watson/Watson Health, IBM Blockchain, and now AI, and these are companies who are part of the disingenous "hoax" companies.
