Let's just say that people once thought that Big Tech was once invincible, until it wasn't. Obviously those exposed in the AI hype will tell you that there is no winter. Until the music stops and almost little to no-one can make money out of this AI race to zero.

Go look at how much money was spent on AI R&D in the last AI 'summers' (and winters). Pennies compared to the billions and billions of dollars the private and public sector is throwing at it right now. Will some investments turn out to be a waste of time and money? Yes. Will investment be reduced to a fraction of what it is today? Hell no. The music stops when humans are economically obsolete.
