CAD 🤖 Agents

CAD is 💤 Quiet on Above the Fog’s AI hype radar: a hype score of 15 out of 100 on Oct 29, 2026, 7 points lower than 7 days before. Its attention is within the normal range across the monitored sources. Its last hype episode in the 30-day window ran from Oct 13 to Oct 16 (peak 30 on Oct 15).

In the news: I wrote working rules for designing CAD models with Claude Code — looking for feedback — Reddit · Oct 28

First seen on Google News (RSS) · Oct 15 — the first monitored source to go above normal for it in the last 14 days.

Why this stage: within the normal range across monitored sources.

Data note: 7 of the last 14 days were not collected live. No collection ran on Oct 22–Oct 28, or a later run refilled those days at once. Every hype score is measured against the 14 days before it and those days are thin, so the scores, the stages and the week-over-week theme trends may read higher than they are until they leave that window on Nov 12.

Where the attention comes from

“Normal” is the median of the source’s previous 14 normal days for this topic. A source is above normal when its value is at least 30% over that level and stands out from its usual day-to-day variation (z ≥ 2); the share is the part of the hype score that source explains. “× normal” is left blank when the normal level is 0.
