ALL of the chat bots are massive money sinks. The only reason they’re still in operation now is because stupid people keep pouring hundreds of billions of dollars into investments that can never pay off. At some point one of two things will happen:
Investors stop investing because they understand there’s no “there” there. They figure out that LLMs are a huge scam and that pouring more money into them won’t recoup their already-massive losses.
Money literally runs out and ends investment.
Once, either way, investment ends, the chatbots will be gone, leaving nothing behind. Because nobody (in a statistical sense) will pay the kinds of outrageous costs it will take to run things like ChatGPT for the marginal value such garbage machines bring to the table. They can’t continue without the money-burning class feeding them. They will die off and the healing of the dead Internet can eventually begin.
It’s not “planned”. It’s “inevitable”.

I appreciate your optimistm, but I won’t hold my breath.
There’s absolutely nothing optimistic about it. They aren’t a government that issues their own currency. They can’t keep burning cash.
