An expert in cybersecurity warns that the fever for ChatGPT is an unsustainable bubble.
While sector leaders defend sustained growth, analysts recall historical cases of overvaluation and suggest caution regarding the current speed and volume of investments.
Global enthusiasm for artificial intelligence and tools like ChatGPT has driven millions in investments in the tech sector.
However, critical voices warn that this boom might be inflating a difficult-to-sustain bubble.
Shlomo Kramer, co-founder of the cybersecurity firm Cato Networks, stated that the scale of investments in AI is not justified by current results, and that sooner or later, many companies could face serious consequences if reality fails to meet the expectations generated.
The growth of artificial intelligence has been so rapid that many companies have bet their future on automation and large-scale data processing.
ChatGPT and other generative models have fueled the perception that AI will be the dominant driver of the economy and innovation in the coming years.
But according to Kramer, there is a disconnect between the promise and the real benefits achieved so far.
Why experts warn of an AI bubble
Kramer did not hesitate to describe the phenomenon as a "textbook bubble."
In statements to Business Insider, he pointed out that investments in artificial intelligence are overvalued and that the technology is not advancing at the same pace as the capital being dedicated to its development.
