I have no doubt this is the case. There is so much crapware out there with the only selling point being the infusion of AI, and even the big players continue to score own goals (ScarJo voice, no shipped new voice mode, Recall, Copilot vulnerabilities, AI overviews, faked demos etc etc) at an alarming pace. However, when all the hype settles down, I think we will find there is some real long-lasting benefit from this technology, even if it won't scale the heights of the monumental promises some have made.
Meanwhile @economist - article today: "Artificial intelligence is losing hype"
