I work for a company making AI related products. I've asked multiple Executive VP's if we are in an AI bubble. They all dance around the question.
I started working in 1997 and saw the dot com bubble and collapse. If you had asked me in 1999 I thought it would go on forever. I used to get 5 recruiter calls a day. In 2001 I got zero recruiter calls the entire year and it took me 10 months to find a new job.
I saw people at Cisco that had exercised stock options and held on to it at $80 and then it dropped to $20 and they had huge AMT tax bills that they couldn't pay even if they sold everything they had including their house.
My warnings of the AI bubble popping are not just an "I told you so" but also a warning to people to diversify out of their company stock and diversify in general.
