In the summer of 1999, the dot-com frenzy gripped Silicon Valley. Startups with little more than a website and a dream commanded billion-dollar valuations, fueled by visions of an internet utopia. Then, in March 2000, the bubble burst, erasing $5 trillion in market value and ushering in a recession. Fast-forward to 2025: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become the new darling, with Nvidia’s market cap soaring past $3 trillion, OpenAI projecting $13 billion in annual revenue, and global AI investments hitting $252 billion in 2024 alone.

Is this the next dot-com implosion, or is AI’s expansion on firmer ground? This article dissects the risks, examines the sources of income propping it up, and weighs whether the bubble will burst—or evolve.
