   The AI bubble which must be considered (I mean: a lot of people has a   
   lot of understanding of that term) is that big companies will stop   
   to invest always more money on it. That doesn't mean the data centers   
   will stop to work, it means that new data centers will stop to be build.   
   At least at such increasing speed. It doesn't mean that actual GPU will   
   cease to work. It means that big companies will stop to buy so many GPU.   
      
   So, globally, everything that has already be done will stay. And new   
   things will improve at a slower pace. The AI is there and will stay   
   there for a long time. When the AI bubble will burst, its impact will   
   be more on the global economy than on its usage.   
      
   That's why the companies invest so much. Because the one which will   
   have the lead at the time of the burst expects to keep that lead for a   
   long time. Not because they are stupid and can't predict the obvious.   
      
   The AI is there, like it or not, you have to live with it. The fact that   
   you or I like it or not is irrelevant. Like when Platon was criticizing   
   writing system because people stopped to learn by heart, the writing   
   system was there, stay through the ages and revolutionised things. There   
   are some things like farming, writing, electricity that changed   
   everything on the human way of life. And the AI is one one them. There   
   is no going back. I'm not saying that it's good or bad, I'm saying that   
   it's the evolution (not progress because progress is good by definition)   
   and one can't do anything but live with it.
