"It does not matter if AI companies will not be able to get their money back and the stock market will crash. All that is irrelevant, in the long run."
Seriously? If these were open source tools that anyone could run on their home PC that statement would make sense, but that's not what we are talking about here. LLMs are tools that cost massive amounts of money to operate, apparently. The tool goes away if the money goes away. Fossil fuels revolutionized the world, but only because the cost benefit made sense (at least in the relative short-term).
Adding to this, if AI goes away we are left with a generation of people that do not understand the code that AI wrote and older generations that eventually retire out. This is nearly on par with the fictional Dune's destruction of the thinking machines and they have to essentially build religious groups to continue functioning as a society and create guilds to replace the functions of the thinking machines.
