AI doom searches shifted from SaaSpocalypse to jobs to extinction in 2026

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Google Trends data shows AI-related search interest in 2026 has rotated through three distinct fear cycles:

First, the "SaaSpocalypse" (AI kills software businesses)…

…then jobs displacement

…and now outright extinction risk.
