The AI boom has really carried Python up with it, but it was quite popular as early as the mid '00s. I remember grumbling in college around that time that the CS curriculum was shifting from Java to Python, because I didn't like Python and thought it was a worse first language.

Incidentally, even though I still hold those opinions, I can admit that history has solidly shown them to be unfounded.
