Comment by captain_coffee 10 days ago So ... will the crash be bigger that the one causing The Great Depression or smaller? Any bets? 5 comments captain_coffee Reply CodingJeebus 10 days ago The Great Depression saw 25% unemployment and a third of farmers losing their land. Millions could die if it gets that bad today. lifetimerubyist 10 days ago This sounds good to the "earth is overpopulated" crowd. zvqcMMV6Zcr 10 days ago Not even close. The 2008 financial crisis is better comparison. And even then I think most negative effect will come from investors pulling money away from everything non-AI, than OpenAI/Anthropic/Oracle crashing and burning. rvz 10 days ago Before 2030, especially if the frontier AI labs begin to IPO before then. mhitza 10 days ago I'm really eager to see how Anthropic's IPO this year (if it even happens) will pan out.
