Essay by Cory Doctorow ( npub1hykucplphuhelaxutcw4jw3vuu7gcg42czhqmk7jhchs8vdga4fsj73p33 (npub1hyk…3p33) ) talking about what'll remain after the AI bubble pops, and makes some strong points about how the promised big-money uses that an AI industry will run on are unlikely to actually succeed.
(I think he underestimates how persnickety the D&D kids are about art, but it's plainly true that illustration is simply not a big-money enterprise the way medicine and cars are, and may be iffy in terms of paying for itself when the pop sounds.)
