    They survived it because of massive investments by wealthy venture capitalists and a strong foothold in their markets. They also came out of it with an eye toward dominance of those markets. Lean and mean doesn’t even begin to describe how awful these companies are. I don’t think we are going to enjoy the surviving AI companies that emerge from this particular bubble because they will be even more capitalistic in their intent to dominate every market.

      That’s exactly what they are trying to do. Become bubble proof through pure size in order to be the dominant player after the pop.
