What is posted to HN daily is beyond speculation. I suppose a psychologist has a term for what it is, I don't.

Edit: well, guess what? I asked an "AI":

Psychological Drivers of AI Hype:

  Term                   | Driver                | Resulting Behavior

  -----------------------|-----------------------|------------------------------

  ELIZA Effect           | Symbolic projection   | Treating a script like a person.

  Automation Bias        | Cognitive offloading  | Trusting AI over your own eyes.

  Techno-Optimism        | Confirmation bias     | Ignoring risks for "progress."

  Interface Familiarity  | Fluency heuristic     | Friendly UI = "Smart" system.

By the way, the text formatting is done by the "AI" as well. Asked it to make the table look like a table on HN specifically.
