Nah, like a 5th of the market was tied up in dot com. Hundreds of start-ups that were all supposed to take over their sector. AI is not sustainable, but it’s nothing like that.

AI would be overwhelmingly embraced if this was the case. Even a basic income program would have made it palpable.

I haven’t heard this much bubble talk ever. It’s not the same prediction made by the same people again this time. I don’t even know anybody irl who likes vibecoding (myself included) who thinks this is sustainable.

Even the ones saying it before the Dot Com bubble didn’t get it right because their doomerism made all predictions “end of the world” level.

I don’t know what you’re trying to say. People had bad takes about that bubble so all bubble scepticism is discredited? But it popped, which means all these investors had bad takes as well. So…

Nobody worth listening to thinks this bubble is going to be worse than the dotcom bubble. It’s simply not that big to begin with. I guess there’s some wishful thinking too, but what’s the alternative to this investors-expected AI growth? Everything except the AI market crashes?

Dot-com bubble took about 5 years before it burst, and that was crazier. Why would you think this one would pop quicker?
