Alas, the "replace all humans" bullcrap isn't simply an epiphenomenon of the AI tech bubble, it's an ideological stance emergent from capitalism—if you prioritise capital over labour, you end up wanting to abolish labour entirely, and automate all the components of your current very slow AIs (the corporations).
This won't "blow over" unless we shoot all the neoliberal economists and their masters.
