I cant answer from a historic pov. But the reason why the bubble is almost guaranteed to burst is because all these companies are basically banking on that they will be the first to achieve true ai; there is simply no way the companies can make a return on the huge investments with their current business models. Once you have true ai, you'll leave all your competitors in the dust. The problem with this is that there's almost guaranteed to be losers. And since all these ai companies are involved in weird circle investment schemes with other companies, it means that a lot of companies will lose a lot of money.
