   That's a ways off.  Investments, even if realized to have been   
   "wrong", will be rationalized to delay that reckoning.  Goals will   
   be "scaled back" (and, this pitched as a "wise investment decision")

   Eventually, the markets will abandon the idea of AGI as "within their   
   grasp" and will turn to more "specialized/directed" applications of   
   general AI.  The LLM solution will lose much of its hype and be   
   relegated to its ORIGINAL goals instead of magically assuming that   
   it can be a panacea.   
      
   As more leaf processing is done, you'll see specialized AIs deployed   
   to handle specific problem spaces; solutions to which they are more   
   suited and which can deliver measurable returns, in the short term.   
      
   [E.g., using AI to control irrigation schedules is a no-brainer...   
   compare the canned schedule with the actual schedule reified by   
   the AI and you can note the net gains afforded... within DAYS.   
   And, with far less resources "consumed" by the AI!  Or "hoopla".]
