    Unfortunately it won’t pop for another couple years at least. It will only pop when investors start asking for a return and for the stupidest of reasons they’re all content to think that returns won’t happen for 5-10 years after their investments.

    Unfortunately for them it won’t ever happen but the amount of faith they’re putting into it will mean we’ll be saturated with AI for years until someone realizes they have no hope of making enough money to reimburse the cost.

      I’m all for “the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent”. But, anyone (including you) that gives a timeline is just going off vibes.

      We have door knocking SS agents and are kidnapping foreign nations leaders. I don’t think there is any predictable timeline.

      I think the investors and the stocks are far from the only cards that are being played in the game right now.

      This isn’t just about domestic economic stability. It’s about social unrest, geopolitics, and a cold war being waged against China.

      This shit could crash tomorrow morning or go on for years. It’s not really reasonable to give a rational to when the contradictions of this system will collapse. The only certain thing we know is that it will.

      they’re all content to think that returns won’t happen for 5-10 years after their investments.

      That depends on interest rates.

      Also it’ll be awkward when companies ask for another round of stupid money in two years when the current generation of hardware is no longer competitive.
