@zachperkel while a train is stimulative of impressions of something growing over time, in perspective, such as the "Trump Train", I'm pretty sure you meant trend? As in the statistical meaning of trend, a pattern in data?
AI hype is driven by financial markets as any other financial craze since the Tulip Mania. Is this an opinion, or a historical fact? Gemini at least tells me via Google Search that Charles Mackay's Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds is a historical work examining various forms of collective irrationality and mass hysteria throughout history.
