Most boondoggles don't burn trillions of dollars. AI is starting to hit a wall already because there just isn't any more money. It's why there's this desperate push to go public even though their financials are a dumpster fire.

republicans usually crash the economy right toward the end of their term, yeah. pretty much every single time. So Q3 2027 is perfect.

Ai can crash before then, if people stop investing money or loaning money. It doesn't mean OpenAI run out of money straight away, but it means the projects they are involved in don't happen, so the mountain of debt piles up and the sources of revenue dry up. So, it all happens faster and the smaller neo-clouds go belly up first.

Already an Aussie one just pulled its launch IPO due to lack of interest and were considering dropping their price significantly.

If the IPO prices of other companies drop significantly, it means the early investors make very little profit, for a lot of risk, so they start to look elsewhere too.

AI companies need huge amounts of investment over extended periods, so either scenario is problematic for them.

2027

My guess would be 2029, because history doesn't repeat itself but it often rhymes and I want to see Musk jumping down from one of his rockets, but it probably won't last that long, yes.
