On December 1st, Beijing time, TechCrunch published a report stating that November 30th (local time in the U.S.) marked the third anniversary of ChatGPT's grand entrance onto the scene. This innovative chatbot didn't just light a spark in the generative AI market; it set off a wildfire. Yet, in the wake of its meteoric rise, whispers of a potential bubble have started to circulate.

Since its initial release, ChatGPT has skyrocketed in popularity. To this day, it consistently holds a top spot in Apple's free app rankings, acting as a catalyst for a tidal wave of generative AI products flooding the market. Its launch wasn't just a tech milestone; it sent shockwaves through the stock market as well. Shares of tech behemoths like Nvidia soared to unprecedented heights.

However, the honeymoon phase might be over. A growing chorus of AI industry leaders is now voicing concerns that the sector could be teetering on the edge of a bubble. The initial euphoria is giving way to a more cautious, perhaps even skeptical, outlook.
