I mean, even NFTs are still technically around, the tech didn't go away, it just stayed as it's own niche since grifters stopped trying to push it to normal people. I think the same will happen to AI since even if everyone that used chat gpt paid it's monthly fee, they would still lose money.
OpenAI has an enormous debt burden from having developed this tech in the first place. If OpenAI went bankrupt the models would be sold off to companies that didn't have that burden, so I doubt they'd "go away."
As I mentioned elsewhere in this thread I use local LLMs on my own personal computer and the cost of actually running inference is negligible.
