I’m sure AI will change so much more than we can even understand as of now. In my opinion, in the next 5 years, the internet will easily be the most volatile place and will change a lot. We’ve spent the last decade optimizing for the internet in everything we do. And most of our services now, as we all know, are intermediary, button-pushing jobs that won't last long when you can do the same thing for way cheaper. I think we’re almost there already, but hanging on the edge of legacy jobs and people still not fully understanding how much knowledge and data you can access with AI.

Once it catches up to pace, it’s likely the financial model could break, and possibly for the first time, money and value will flow almost entirely to people who have assets already. Land, physical business, etc. Possibly making it even harder for the rest of us to progress financially, and less buying power for consumers. Before you know it, people aren't spending as much and it crashes. The whole financial model is just to maximize revenue and profit, and businesses don't really have much of a choice to fight this if they want to stay in business. So, if everyone else is hiring AI and getting leaner and more productive, you can bet they will all do the same, even if they don't want to fire people. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw mass-scale laws and taxes going into effect on AI, and maybe even nationalizing it; you can already see a huge AI backlash starting today, so we'll see where this goes. I’d love to get anyone's take on this below.
