"AI bubble causing economic collapse" here.
We'd need AI for an AI takeover, so we're safe on that front

The only takeover "AI" is doing is fucking up the economy. LLMs will never be Skynet.

Me on Jan 1: It’s a new year. It can’t be as bad as 2025. I’m gonna stop drinking, and exercise, lay off the weed, and cook healthy.
USA on January 3: Invades a sovereign nation and kidnaps leader.
Me on January 3: Fuck it. Chugs from a 5th of whiskey while rolling a blunt.
I choose all of the above
Don't worry. If its WWIII, just kick back and enjoy the flash

Yes
When you stop giving a shit it gets a little better... at little. But I don't have kids. Fucking nuke my ass. As long as the end is not painful at this point I don't give a shit.
All three in succession.
The AI takeover is already underway, but the AI isn't actually intelligent enough to be successful. So AI slop will result in economic collapse. A depression will make people feel they need to give authoritarians more power and that will result in WW3.
