Disclaimer: Not all neurodivergent people, but they’re doing it because we’re a problem for them. We tend to group together, be highly educated, hyper-focused, creative, queer, stubborn, and have some form or another of hypervigilance/critical thinking skills and an increased desire for justice. They’re after autistic people because they can’t let these new types mess with their plans. They’d rather call them ill and teach them to mask again. We take what the science says as true, make it internal law, and won’t let their feelings (or lies) change our minds

at least the high functioning ones.

I have no fucks to give.

worse is that the rich saw it coming and choose to save themselves without changing course. Like, we could have saved more people but they wanted bigger lifeboats for themselves.

I imagine the people of Israel even more buried in propaganda than we are, Made worse by the fact that they had October 6th (which was allowed to happen, no doubt) and that they are living under constant threat of attack. For the average people of Israel, I sympathize. All of that said, I don’t change my stance. Your leaders have brainwashed you and pushed to to where you are. They have been manipulating your enemies with 4D chess moves for generations to make sure that you HAVE enemies and they have certainly used your fear to dehumanize your neighbors. You can come pander for my support when you change your leaders and arrest Bibi. God helps those that help themselves.

Those hands are too big.

I find that Gamers Nexus on YouTube does really good reporting on it from the hardware side of things. Most of their reports are about an hour long and take quotes directly from primary sources. It’s hard to give other primary sources beyond that. I tend to get financial news from all over, and I enjoy learning about history.

Much of this is just speculation, but still…

What you should understand is that the technology isn’t going to go away. Chatbots generally won’t be going away. What we’ll likely see is consolidation and bailouts. In a perfect world, the companies would just go under, but governments have shown a total willingness to buy into the technology.

All a bubble really is, is a market or industry that is overvalued due to speculation. What we will likely see is the biggest companies swallowing up the smaller ones and AI technology becoming some kind of software-as-a-service offered by a handful of companies. Microsoft, Google, OpenAI… We can’t know which companies, and that’s part of what is keeping this bubble going. I know I’m oversimplifying, but we’re not talking about what caused the bubble, just what will happen when it pops. The shoehorning won’t stop, but it will become less obnoxious. The tech will find its place to live, and in some of those places, it won’t seem that bad. I’d guess in the form of an AI agent assistant.

I think Microsoft’s dream model is actually the future that we’re looking at. That is, some kind of AI-integrated OS or web browser (or both) that is feeding you information as filtered through the AI. Meaning all information you get from the internet would be fed to you, not directly from the host source, but from whatever company runs your AI OS or browser. That’s a little theoretical right now, granted, but the dream seems to be that for these companies.

AI integration is garbage, but at the front end, your average user isn’t going to know that. I suspect that’s how they wanted it. We are seeing the foundations of a redesign of the internet and the digital age in real time. It’s not just companies wanting to get a return on value from these LLMs. It’s also the gamble that when the various competitors collapse, they’ll be able to swoop in, grab the competing tech for pennies, and implement it themselves.

When the bubble pops, we will likely see huge collapses in the tech sector as all the companies that invested in it directly get swallowed up. Something something too big to fail. Some of those sectors will get bailed out, and the US will likely suffer a massive depression from the various costs. There is concern about the potential for AI being used to create a software and hardware-as-a-service model, and I can see that being something that gets pushed. Because then, the data center infrastructure that is getting built serves a new purpose.

So it’s GOING to pop, but “deflate” might be more accurate. I know that most of us don’t want it and that it’s pretty hard to see right now, but all the pieces of the puzzle are present or being built.

I don’t actually see much changing on the hardware side. Computer components manufacturers have all been shifting to producing for AI data centers. So anyway, let me make bullet points of my thoughts because all this is messy.

• AI doesn’t go away; it becomes the new front end of the internet and home computing.
• AI companies consolidate and maybe specialize into various parts of the market (think Google offering web browsing, and Windows offering home computing).
• Home computing will become virtualized, with the home computer becoming something of an access point for a rented VM, which meets their needs based on what they pay for. We’ve seen this fail with cloud gaming, but only because there are still other options for access to things like games and software.
• Access to information is controlled and obfuscated as websites and hosting become more expensive. (This is already happening now, but with the consumer market shrinking for computer parts, the only viable option may be for users to buy into this model.)

There’s more, but really, that’s my big picture, and why pretty much everyone ignores the general public’s hate for it. They don’t see it as a fun new fade, they see it as an innovation that his going to take over the world. as much as I hate it I think they’re right, If only because at the same time that all of this is happening we are seeing industry captures through legislation and corruption.

The bubble popping is going to hurt consumer markets not commerical ones and all the tech they’ve developed and hardware they’ve developed will be used to help absorb costs and take over those markets which the bubble itself destroyed. We’ll all suffer for it.
