I think we should stop spreading FUD by calling things bubbles. A lot of people who wanted to invest in Bitcoin when it was sub 10K did not do so because others convinced them it was a "bubble". But even though I completely agree that bubbles happen, how often do these bubbles really happen? Not as often as we think.

We don't live in the lala country where everyone drinks honey and never gets ill. So don't be so sensitive to not so rosy scenarios.

What is hindering the success of AI? Empty pockets of the people the AI companies aim at. In the 80's last century most people had 20 bucks spare, in 2025 they don't.

You wonder why? 1990 €100 bought a substantial amount of food, for the same amount and the same ingredients you need €223 in 2025.
Coupled with raised insurances, higher cost of living there is the reason why AI won't make it.
Investors have years to wait, wait and hope.

How are the chances that the working class could double their income?
And how high are the chances they'd blow it on AI?
