A lot of folks whose first language isn't English use "only" in the way OP did. It's not to signify a shorter amount of time than people think it ought to be. It means in this case that the AI bubble would not pop before 10 years is up.
Yeah, I'd say there's a difference between "in only 10 years" and "in 10 years only," though this is coming from a non-native speaker as well 😅
It is annoying, though, that there is no (clear,) concise way to say "pas over 10 jaar" like I can in Dutch.
