A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

AI nowaday is like Bluetooth 20 years ago: they put it everywhere where it's almost never useful (feddit.it)

It's useful for a lot of stuff but it's been waaay over hyped, mostly by youtubers desperate for content. So I think a lot of people are having a counter-reaction to that.

Once everyone calms down and realise it's not an automatic-do-everything-machine, they'll appreciate the circumstances in which it actually is useful.
