'This is a race towards who can get more and more of the world’s 7.5 billion people to become subscribers': IBM's CEO says the AI industry isn't a bubble

It might just be the industry I'm in and the chatter I'm most surrounded by, but there does seem to be a lot of anti-AI sentiment of late. In particular, there are very reasonable concerns that the AI industry might be a bubble that's getting ready to pop. One person who isn't quite so pessimistic, though, is the CEO of IBM, Arvind Krishna.

Krishna recently spoke with Nilay Patel, EIC of The Verge, on the Decoder podcast and sounded optimistic about the future of AI—which is, to my ears at least, quite refreshing, even if I don't agree on all points. In particular, although he does explicitly say "no", we're not in an AI bubble, his explanation, at least on my listening, doesn't seem to completely rule out this possibility; rather, it explains how such things aren't all-or-nothing.
