True, but as what happend in the dot com bubble, the middle and lower classes will pay. If you lived in a tech area during the bubble burst then, you'll know how bad this is going to be worldwide.
So what to do if I suspect a bubble is coming? Sell my investment funds and keep fiat? Buy gold? Buy merchandise to sell later? Buy real estate?
I have no idea how to prepare.
If you see risk being very high, make low risk investments: high yield savings accounts, CDs, bonds.
CDs? Damn I have a bunch of CDs with music, games. I'm gonna be rich.

I want a form of government where to become president you have to travel to 7 ancient temples and at each one pass the trial and acquire the artifact

So… it’s an AI boom, or the bubble is about to burst? They need to pick a lane on which thing they want us to be concerned with.
the AI ~~boom~~ bubble
Given the size of the bubble, I think it will make a decent BOOM
