It's half sarcasm, half my frustration in the way ai crash proponents behave in general

if you proclaim that there's an inevitable doom - propose preparations *people you're talking to* can take

when I hear about nuclear doom, I see preppers discussing bunkers and how rich people buy land in Argentina to evacuate to

when I hear about stock market crash, I see people discussing some famous super-investor moving his money into coca-cola, because food would always have a demand

even bloody "the end is nigh" apocalypse junkies continue with "go to church" (or smth similar) in the very next sentence

what can YOU suggest ME as the next action? not for the government to do something, not for the whole market - how do you suggest ME to prepare? what do you suggest *I* will experience?

at best, our approximation of ai bust is the dotcom - and that happened beyond current generation's memory. At best surviving context is "and the ruin left a lot of cheap fiber laid out all around the world", so... we'll get a lot of cheap ai then? good
