AI millionaires hit by depression: after earning tens of millions of dollars, they complain of loneliness, emptiness, and guilt, - Fortune

According to investor Didi Das, in the past five years roughly 10 thousand employees and founders of OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Nvidia, and Meta have become wealthier by more than $20 million. But many of them admit they have lost their sense of purpose.

Psychotherapists call this the "sudden wealth syndrome 2.0." Something similar was observed back in the dot-com boom, but now the situation is more complicated.

Millionaires feel guilty for having made fortunes from technologies that may deprive other people of jobs. They find it hard to relate to old friends, and increasingly retreat into circles of other wealthy people.

Some become so detached from ordinary life that their children grow up practically isolated from the rest of society.

ИИ-миллионеров накрыла депрессия: заработав десятки миллионов долларов, они жалуются на одиночество, пустоту и чувство вины, - Fortune

По оценке инвестора Диди Даса, за последние пять лет около 10 тысяч сотрудников и основателей OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Nvidia и Meta разбогатели более чем на $20 млн. Но многие из них признаются, что потеряли смысл жизни.

Психотерапевты называют это "синдромом внезапного богатства 2.0". Подобное наблюдали ещё во времена бума доткомов, но теперь ситуация сложнее.

Миллионеры испытывают вину из-за того, что заработали состояния на технологиях, которые могут лишить других людей работы. Им становится трудно общаться со старыми друзьями, и они всё чаще замыкаются в кругу таких же богачей.

Некоторые настолько отрываются от обычной жизни, что их дети растут практически в изоляции от остального общества.

At the same time, Wehren believes that in a conventi...
