Everyone’s talking about the looming AI bubble and the chaos and disaster that will follow.
The dot‑com era overvalued many start-ups but it also laid the foundations of today’s digital economy. Survivors like Amazon and eBay thrived and the infrastructure built then still powers the tech ecosystem we rely on. The same is true for AI. Even if some ventures fail, the massive investment in infrastructure, talent, and innovation will fuel transformative products and efficiencies across industries.
Just as the telegraph and railway booms created new markets beyond their initial hype, AI is laying groundwork that will outlast the bubble itself. Current AI investments are already driving GDP growth and productivity gains.
For us, the strategic lens is clear: this isn’t just a financial cycle but also a chance to accelerate innovation. At Gato Blanco, we don’t position ourselves by fearing the bubble: we leverage AI‑driven advances to strengthen reliability, trust, and growth—quiet systems that become loud results.
