I remember the news reporting about record breaking amounts of mortgage defaults in like 2007 as well. The signs were all there, but people were too oblivious or high on their own supply of farts to see them.

Anytime people are like "we couldn't see this coming" I never understand why they are allowed to pass that obvious lie off in public.

The AI bubble signs are in plain view everywhere you look right now. If (or much more likely when) it bursts everyone will be talking about how they couldn't possibly see it coming again.

If people say they couldn't see this shit coming, maybe their myopic asses shouldn't be in charge of anything important ever again.
