Is there a concise industry-term for "amazing demo, terrible irl"?

Not saying this is one (the demo looks great). But the last 12 months of any AI/ML tools has been 1) demand powered by an amazing, over-hyped demo followed by 2) incredibly lackluster usage as people realize it was overpromised.

You can argue any product as a gap b/w expectation and reality, but the last year has taken it to an absurdity.
