Thousands got bamboozled by an AI-generated video claiming a massive firework spectacle would light up the skyline on New Year's Eve. The hype was real. The fireworks? Completely non-existent. 😭

Another reminder of how slippery the line between AI-crafted promises and actual delivery has become. Same energy as crypto projects that never delivered.

This is just the usual operation of project teams in the crypto circle—PPT is perfect, but delivery is zero. I've said it before, AI-generated promises are no different from whitepapers; just new tricks to fleece the newbies. Scammers' methods are evolving, but the fate of the retail investors remains unchanged. Another wave of collective illusion driven by Ponzi schemes—once you see through it, you just become numb. The chips are in the hands of the manipulators, and the story is in our minds. It's really just a change of soup without changing the medicine; there will still be people jumping on board next time.

This isn't an AI problem, it's a human problem. Why do you trust it so much?

This is the usual operation in Web3, scam a wave and then run.

AI bragging really takes the cake, just like some crypto projects.

ngl this is just the memetic velocity of broken promises hitting critical mass. according to my regression analysis of copium consumption patterns (p < 0.420), we're witnessing peak disappointment-to-hype ratio
