> Young people increasingly hate AI[1], and children already struggle with AI-enabled harassment that traumatizes them and disrupts their learning. And studies show kids are offloading learning onto AI models, undermining their education and social development.

The coyote is already running beyond the cliff so indoctrinating kids won't save them from an AI winter 6-18 months away.

I swear that I read this same "6-18 months" timeframe 3 years ago.

Honestly, yeah, fair point. There's enough money in tech to keep the party going for who knows how long.

The housing market was unsustainable for a long time and went even further up before it crashed. The smart people who called that have lost a lot of money making reasonable bets against things which should have crashed.

The difference now is rich people have positively stupid amounts of money to keep stupid things going for even stupidly longer periods of time.

that's true, but if calling a crash was that easy, it would have been priced into the market already. regardless of when the crash occurs, I think we can all agree that the current form of AI is financially unsustainable. How much would you allow if you paid its true cost? $300/mo, $500/mo $1k? for intern-level slop.
