IMO it'll be much more decentralized with lots of smaller companies and individuals benefiting the most.

World tends to swing back and forth between decentralized and heavily centralized order of things. 90-s and early 2000s was decentralized invention explosion. 2010s were when most successful startups capitalized on their success and maximized their potential. But this approach today is hitting significant diminishing returns - hence all the layoffs. It's too centralized, too large, too slow to react.

Right now the world is right after it's peak centralization and swinging right back towards decentralization and rapid change of landscape again like in 90s and 2000s.

You see hundreds of thousands of small startups having millions of ideas on how to do things that are much more capable today because of stagnation brought on by excessive centralization and because technology today require significantly less labor, but more ideas.

And this trend will continue. At least during this decade.
