Yes. If you judge only from the hype, then you can't distinguish LLMs from crypto, or Nuclear Weapons from Nuclear Automobiles.

If you always say that every new fad is just hype, then you'll even be right 99.9% of the time. But if you want to be more valuable than a rock (https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/heuristics-that-almost-alwa...), then you need to dig into the object-level facts and form an opinion.

In my opinion, AI has a much higher likelihood of changing everything very quickly than crypto or similar technologies ever did.
