The AI market might not collapse but the stock market could! Even if the AI companies only need to downgrade their investments and a healthy correction is underway, a fire sale of AI-related stocks will bring the stock market to its knees.

They've gotten companies hooked and personally I cannot go back to the old way of coding. However, I do see a bit of reduced demand for hardware and datacenters which could reprice these companies to more sane multiples. There will be winners and losers.

- rconti 4mo agoHave you noticed that some % of devs are totally sold on AI, and others less so? I use it all the time, and I'd say my use is declining now after a fair bit of disillusionment. It's not hard to imagine a world in which: * Companies realize they're spending too much on AI, and cut back * AI companies start raising prices * Companies cut back on AI usage even more to compensate for the higher prices * Some individual users use less AI, while others continue to increase their usage The projected figures rely on EVERYTHING continuing to go up, which it doesn't seem to be.
