Is market heading towards a big AI crash like the dot-com crisis? Here's what European Central Bank predicts

The European Central Bank is warning that the market for artificial intelligence could experience a significant correction, similar to the dot-com crisis of the early 2000s. This correction would be triggered by overstretched valuations, changing economic risks, and limited options for policymakers to intervene. If such a correction occurs, it could have a significant impact on investors in the euro area, leading to sharp stock price adjustments.
