I feel you've misunderstood the moment. There is no "over". This is it.

This assumes that a less resources intensive future awaits or that conflict driven by lack of employment doesn’t lead to the end of AI.

  • Did any conflict driven by a lack of employment ever lead to the end of a new technology?

  • It won't. Unless AI plateaus, it's just too valuable so big money and big militaries will keep it alive.
