“I think the big companies are betting on it causing massive job replacement by AI, because that’s where the big money is going to be.”

    Not a bubble popping, but a balloon deflating. We have enough hardware to simulate the 10 billion neurons in a human brain, right now they are focusing on the software. I don’t think it will “pop and crash”.

      That’s hopeful, but that’s never how it’s worked before. When I talk about “pop” I’m talking about the financial. I think the debt will pop and a lot of these oddly named AI companies will dissolve with no money. The applications of AI will continue. The dotcom bubble saw a huge financial crash, and a lot of weird internet companies died, but the internet remained and we eventually got Netflix and Amazon, etc.
