In this episode of 15 Minutes of Finance, host James Walters breaks down the three biggest differences between today’s AI boom and the dot-com crash of 2000. From Pets.com to ChatGPT, we explore how technology cycles evolve, why AI is fundamentally different, and what investors can learn from the last major tech mania.You’ll learn:-Why today’s AI leaders like NVIDIA, Microsoft, and Google are profitable powerhouses instead of hype machines.-How modern infrastructure, global adoption, and automation make the AI revolution more grounded than the 1999 internet frenzy.-What fundamentals actually matter when evaluating AI stocks in 2025.-A fourth bonus metric that truly separates the dot-com era from today’s AI revolution: proven profitability across entire ecosystems, not just isolated companies.-Whether you’re an investor, advisor, or tech enthusiast, this episode helps you separate innovation from speculation and decide whether AI is the next big thing or just the next big bubble.
