I see your "subprime AI crisis" and I raise with "subprime attention crisis" [digital marketing]. https://www.fsgoriginals.com/books/subprime-attention-crisis (or: https://freakonomics.com/podcast/does-advertising-actually-work-part-2-digital-ep-441/)

I completely agree that this is a bubble. It's one of a few huge ones. Honestly, how many bubbles can we have inflated at the same time and be casual about it? Some bubbles can take ages to pop becouse they are acctively protected with borrowed money, subsidies, and predatory practices. Look how many giant brands were never profitable. Of course crativity will trive at the end. But it may take a while, and the net billans for human kind will be negative. If they all pop at once... It's barely comforting that the digital weastland will be full of powerful art.
