Investments in AI are in the billions. With that kind of money flying around, it's going to attract a lot of snake oil salesmen. It didn't help that for the general public and investors, any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic, and LLMs reached that point for many.

Just keep the hype cycle in mind. It'll all go downhill after the point of inflated expectations. With AI, it always does.
