There will be an explosion of AI services like ChatGPT that do exactly the same thing but much cheaper. They’ll run FOSS AI models that didn’t cost them billions of dollars to train and run on purpose-built hardware (i.e. not GPUs). “Big AI” will pivot to government contracts.
As that fifth year comes around, companies will be announcing products that have these purpose-built chips inside them that can do a whole heck of a lot of stuff without requiring a constant connection to the Internet. Think: Toys, appliances, and very fancy cars.
Every single piece of software will have been rewritten by AI so many times with so many clones it’ll be hard to distinguish good stuff from bad. The situation will become so problematic that every app store/repo will insist upon some kind of supply chain certification and possibly 3rd party verification.
AI tools that search the Internet on behalf of the user will crush ad-based businesses like Google and Meta. The AI will automatically filter out the ads and other cruft from search results and return just the search results the user wanted in the first place. This will result in free search engines becoming even worse and paid search will become a necessity. It’ll probably get incorporated into plans like Google, Microsoft, Amazon, etc bundled plans where you pay for a certain amount of photo storage/whatever and get premium search as last of the bundle.

Shouldn’t have trained them exclusively on American children
