Well... On HN, the crowd is largely technical and the rhetoric has been that our jobs are no longer useful or required. Seeing 'that' idea fail (in any capacity, efficiency gain and usefulness of the technology aside) is probably some schadenfreude, and a bit of self preservation.
I also believe that a lot of the hype has been unrealistic, so IF there is a bubble and IF it is bursting, I'd hope it to be a wake up call and give investors, companies, and regular people more realistic expectations about what we're working with here.
