Hi Eduard, thank you so much for commenting and pointing out the mistakes I made.
I agree with your point, especially that the AI hype theme is very similar to the .com bubble. The most scary bit is that the speed at which the AI hype hit the world was so fast—it felt like overnight compared to the .com era.
What you asked- Is it just us humans, greed, confusion, fear, and addiction?- has reminded me of this (from the engines that move markets): An outbreak of collective insanity that was one day going to burst.
