There's not enough money for AI to actually get that big. Don't misunderstand me, I know they are spending hundreds of billions of dollars / trillions on blowing this up on the stock market and doing phyiscal hardware installs and building big ass data centers and power generation plants, but nobody can afford to pay them. There's no cost savings, only a transfer of income from individual workers to companies that basically don't sell a product, they rent it out.
