The phrase "fuck you, I got mine" comes to mind.

The logical end seems to be another case of pulling up the ladder behind them as they climb up, others be damned. Sadly seems to be a pretty universal human trait, whether intentional or not.



I'm a SWE, helping build AI infrastructure.

I get where you're coming from, but I haven't "got mine", at least not yet. I'm still relatively early in my career.

If AI fulfills its promise, I might lose my job. If the bubble bursts, I'll definitely lose my job.

For now, it's where the money is. I'd like to make money now so that I won't have a completely horrible time if things ever take a turn for the worse.
