• After the bubble pops how much would our lives be impacted?

  • Would AI vanish or still be there?

  • How exactly do you think the bubble will pop? Will AI companies simply run out of money? Or will it be because of the environmental effects?

  • When do you think the “pop” will take place?

  • After the bubble pops, in future there will be companies/people who will try the AI thing again? What will that be like?

    I think part of the process is going to be the enshittification of AI services. (Temporary, until the technology for sustainable infrastructure catches up.) Tokens will cost a premium, and a lot of businesses that depend on AI will turn to China’s cheaper offerings.

    Hobbyists will turn more to home-grown AI systems.

    In recent news, Chinese AI is catching up to Anthropic. It’ll be interesting if the Trump administration tries to block the Chinese AI offerings in order to bolster US ones. Trump and the AI tech bros are familiar bedfellows after all.
