Did you mean the crypto/NFT bubble?

Yeah I was going to say VC throwing money at the newest fad isn't anything new, in fact startups strive exploit the fuck out of it. No need to actually implement the fad tech, you just need to technobabble the magic words and a VC is like "here have 2 million dollars".

In our own company we half joked about calling a relatively simple decision flow in our back end an "AI system".
