MODERATORS
Over half of tech industry workers have seen the "great demo -> overhyped bullshit" cycle before.
No SQL, block chain, crypto, metaverse, just to name a few recent examples.
AI is overhyped, but it is, so far, more useful than any of those other examples, though.
These are useful technologies if used when called for. They aren't all in one solutions like the smart phone killing off cameras, pdas, media players... I think if people looked at them as tools which fix specific problems, we'd all be happier.
