Doubtful. Look at how long Uber and Tesla have lasted despite making huge losses. Hell even Magic Leap somehow still exists (I guess because they don't have running costs beyond salaries).

I think this can keep going for at least another 5 years.

Uber had only 25B invested in them before their IPO. OpenAI has 120B invested in them currently which excludes these kinds of deals (as far as I’m aware)!

In a system of open-ended growth, yes, you can point to how long the system has persisted as evidence of its longevity. But in a system of plateauing growth, the system's age is an indicator of how close it may be to death. I suspect that the model that permitted the "success" of Uber and Tesla is nearing the end of its lifetime.
