alt Hacker NewsMy hope for such an event is mostly to bring tech leadership types back down to planet earth and to get them to shut up for a few minutes. There are a lot of AI charlatans who need to be humbled by the markets so the serious folks among us can get back to doing real work.
ETA: I also guess I sort of hope for it because this whole cycle has felt so incredibly irrational that I desire a small return to sanity, even if it comes at the cost of some of my retirement.

I dare say my retirement would appreciate the buying opportunity a bear market would afford, provided I get to stay employed.
I was going to echo the same. I'm less bothered by the hype than the vagueness of it all. Use AI, management doesn't know what for, figure it out. Also, prove productivity gains somehow, we're not sure how to do that, figure that out as well. Figure out AI security too, we saw a scary article about that.
