So tech stocks are down because AI is a nothingburger. And non-tech stocks are down because AI is going to destroy their business. So which is it?

Could the non-tech stocks be down because the productivity increases expected from AI are illusory? Or that when the bubble bursts the economy will be wrecked and all businesses will be affected?
