Blurb: "An asset generates excitement among investors because its value starts rising — not because it’s inherently valuable or profitable, but mainly because other investors are buying it. As more and more investors borrow piles of cash to get in on the action, the bubble grows. But when it becomes evident that way too much has been invested relative to the potential for profits, the bubble bursts. It’s often the case that the biggest investors, with inside information, notice the bubble and cash out before it bursts. Everyone else is left with near-worthless pieces of paper. If the entire economy is threatened, governments have to bail out the remaining players to avoid even more widespread destruction. AI has many of the characteristics of a bubble" (Reich, R., 2025a).
