      The Internet is built on the rubble of that bubble…

      All those miles of fibre that worldcom put in the ground that sat dark until years after they collapsed, that is what we all are still using to this day, what infrastructure will the ai bubble leave behind when it collapses? The gpus are burnt, and you wouldn’t be able to run them in your home even if you wanted to… The power required alone makes that a non starter

        what infrastructure will the ai bubble leave behind when it collapses?

        An understandable hatred and mistrust of Silicon Valley tech types and technology in general within people.

        And at the end of his bubble we’ll have buildings full of obsolete GPUs that can’t even be used to play GTA because they have no display ports.
