So basically the consumer market is screwed until the AI bubble bursts and manufacturers (GPUs, RAM, HDDs, etc.) can rebalance their production lines back to the pre-AI division of enterprise vs consumer product.

In 2030 you will own nothing.

And you will be happy.

By 2030 my game "Backups" will in playing time surpass my remaining life expectancy lol

I have a very long breath to dive this through.

No kidding, my 24tb hdd entirely full of GoG launchers has everything handled.

I wish I believed the happy part

You be happy or you be soylent.

As workers, we are majorly screwed no matter what happens. Either AI/Robotics takes off, and creates a permanent 50% unemployment class, which MAGA will solve by exchanging basic subsistence needs like shelter and water in work camps, where we will be leased out to corporations as slaves, under the 13th Amendment. Also a good place for any dissenters, journalists, attorneys and judges who won't go along, etc.

Or maybe the bubble will pop, and we'll have a repeat of 2008, except 100 times worse.

No matter what happens, the citizens are going to take it in shorts.
