“If I work in/with AI my job will be safe” isn’t true after all.


It was never true, unless you're a top 100 in the world AI researcher. 99% of AI investment is in infrastructure (GPUs, data centers, etc). The goal is to eliminate labor, whether AI-skilled or not.


They are at the for front of training PCs to replace them and teaching management that they can be replaced.


Nobody's job is safe when the bubble pops. (Except for the "leadership" needed to start hyping the next bubble.)


If your resume include FAIR, it's safe to say you'll find a job.


Whose money will they use?


Yours.

Taking a guess here but, I think what they're saying is, if most investors have gone all-in on AI, and the bubble pops, who will be investing in the next big thing? What investors will still have money to invest?


These kind of investors are rarely really “all in.” As in they literally have their last dollar invested in a risky endeavor. They’ll be fine. They’ll still be rich, and they’ll still be looking for more pipe dreams to throw their gobs of money at.


Invest in the pubs and bars nearby, when the bubble pops they’ll be full.
