This is the end result of decades of business culture that promotes
idiots who make impressive-sounding noises over people with actual
line-of-business knowledge and/or real management savvy - a bunch of
billionaire morons lighting money on fire in hopes of obsoleting the
workers they've already mostly reduced to wage-slaves out of pure
greed, with no consideration for whether the thing they're burning it
on will ever do the thing they hope it will* or whether their lunatic
gamble doesn't stand a real chance of cratering the very economy that
gives their billions any real-world value** in the first place.

* (It won't, at least not the particular technology that all their
  moron AI-startup CEO friends are all-in on.)
** (It does.)

Just *beyond* insane - reckless, irresponsible squandering for the sake
of nothing at all beyond sociopathic contempt for everyone they
consider beneath them. Sadly, we're not likely to get the "investors
jumping from windows" phase of the crash - that'd require a level of
basic self-awareness that these flesh-suit simulacra are simply not
capable of - but we can hope that in the fallout they might at least be
eaten alive by starving peasants.
