    I'm fucked anyway, and my long term plan is to catch a bullet in the climate wars. Unless I somehow manage to become the 1% of the 1% and somehow dodge the French head removal tool, I'm fucked. So why care?

    The AI crash is taking everyone down. The shock waves from that much money disappearing will hit all segments of the economy. AI investment is almost all of America's GDP the last two years and it's most of the stock gains. This is gonna hurt.

    If AI succeeds, a robot steals your job.

    If AI fails, the economy crashes and you get laid off.

    We're fucked either way. But at least in the latter scenario, a few asshole billionaires might also be fucked.

    I absolutely want to see a stock market crash.

    Long-term investments don't get fucked by temporary market adjustments. They temporarily lose their value. They then rebound over time.

    The inflated stock market bubble drives investment into nonviable economic sectors based on speculation Infrastructure is built that long-term can be detrimental to the economy. The bubble also starves other economic sectors of investment.
