I’m relatively confident that AI represents the formalization of the perspective adhered to by those who run the economy. So, yes, once AI finally fails spectacularly that will serve as the death knell for their entire system. Many probably already know it, which is why things are falling apart left and right, but that bubble bursting will be the end of their last ditch effort.
Honestly, I think it’s less sinister, and more that they legitimately believed that was how the human mind actually worked, so “copying” that blueprint with machines was supposed to result in a reasonable facsimile of a human. Because of the failure, they have to rethink their entire strategy right from the start, which means our entire economic and political system needs to be reimagined.

It does provide context for why so many are throwing so much money at it, when experts know they’re not going to get a monetary return.
It could be that they’re just genuinely huge suckers. But I’m inclined to wonder if there’s more sinister motives in play.
