shantocvon Shares in shoe brand Allbirds rise 580% after it pivots from footwear to AI

This feels like the 2026 version of companies adding "blockchain" to their name in 2017 and watching the stock jump.

Pivoting from a physical product with brand recognition to "AI" when you have no obvious AI expertise or data moat is a tough sell beyond the initial hype pop.
