There’s a massive difference between “going up forever” and “point B is higher than point A.”

The current setup can’t sustain a downturn, even if yes 20 years from now point B is likely to be higher than present.

That’s the danger. Those that are going to get wiped out by the AI bubble burst aren’t wrong about AI being huge long term, they just put themselves in a position to not survive the storms that happen between points A and B.
