So I expect more of a sobering process for AI companies rather than a blowup, simply because they all still will have cash in the bank and some have actual products with clients that make use of them.

Am I overstating the case? My understanding is that a data center tends to be ‘purpose built’, so they may need a gutting for repurposing, but assuming a lot of ‘sobering up’ I’m envisioning several giant cloud providers with excess capacity and a scaling potential.
Be it Jevon’s paradox sparked by cheap compute, another huge tech fad, or a ML breakthrough that brings another kind of model to the forefront, we’re likely to want a lot of compute at some point. It doesn’t seem like bad long-term positioning for the tech giants or investors.
