People will pay $10 a month for chat GPT to write their emails.

They won't even pay that in many cases but instead rely on the free offerings. Expect those to go away altogether, to be heavily hamstring, or to become absolutely riddled with advertisements.

    If run locally you get none of those problems.

    Right, but then we are back to the question of how these companies are supposed to make money. I suppose hardware manufacturers will be okay with this outcome but I'm not sure how these heavily inflated software companies will profit under a local first world. So we are back to the bubble deflating or bursting.

  • I agree with your conclusion. I can't see where the income is coming from to fund all the datacenters being built.

    The bubble is based on creating AGI, but people already don't want to pay for sub AGI intelligence that is already beyond most people's needs.
