Yeah, I think one of the reasons the AI bubble hasn't popped yet is because it's being weaponized to remove consumer hardware from the market entirely. These companies want as much processing done on the cloud as possible so that they can control, monitor and mine data from every user.

    They aren't weaponizing anything against consumers. They don't care about consumers anymore, they are irrelevant.

    They think if they just spend more money they will win the AGI race and therefore the whole economy forever. Consumers don't factor into it at all.
