I have the same feeling but i don't think its a change that you observed in 3 months. Rather its different people's opinions being highlighted at different times. What is a bit irrational is something I have noticed - that the same people claim that AI is both a bubble but also fear job losses from AI. But also think that the billionaires get rich out of this. How all of these things can happen together, I don't know. Its just likely that people can't deal with uncertainty and fear change - they would resort to opposing change with arguments from all dimensions even if they contradict eachother.

How all of these things can happen together, I don't know. One can believe the thing is a bubble, while also acknowledging the existential fear that if it isn't, then it might come and basically ruin your life. It's a balancing scale, and one side is weighted much more heavily than the other. Plus, as we've already seen, some executives are really jumping on the bandwagon and using AI as an excuse for massive layoffs, and finding a job in the current market unless you're particularly valuable is difficult. So in that last case, AI can be a useless bubble that takes your job anyway because of trigger-happy CEOs.
