When AI investment fails they will fire you all to cut cost and try to recoup their investments. Either way you are f**d.

As a dev, I love AI. It’s scaring millions of would be software engineers away from the industry. In a few years I hope it’ll lead to a massive supply crunch and I can bump up my total comp another few hundred k.

Article about how Nvidia is paying other companies to buy its chips. Seems quite odd.

This bubble is concentrated at the top stocks in tech which is driving the market high. Any reversal will cause cascading effect on others and will quickly drain the retirement accounts

"Tokenized equity" is like the NFT of stocks I guess. Another bubble but one that didn't matter. This one will.

It is a bubble. Eventually people will figure out we do not have generalized AI. All we have that is new are large language models -- good for a few things, but not for everything, and overly hyped right now.

Yes, our tech sector is not capable of creating the type of AI they are claiming will eliminate all white collar jobs. Their AI tools will be too expensive to properly monetize while most people are able to get by using open source AI from China. You will start seeing cracks as more and more people/businesses make really bad decisions thinking AI can provide good advice on anything.

Typical of new technolgoies. They all fight to be market leader, and investors toss money at all of them hoping they have picked the winner.
We use AI in our company. Cost per AI "unit" is 1/30th of what it was a year ago, due to technologoy moving so far. Huge efficiency gains in the early days of technology, as is typical.
Yeah but you aren't getting charged anywhere close to the actual cost of production, setting aside the societal costs from the ridiculous energy needs. The actual gains from using it have also been very hard to quantify or seem very minor. The error rate is just too high that you can't rely on it.

Any thoughts?

Anyone who tries to actually nail down details on spending and projections by OpenAI comes up with...not much. It's a ton of smoke and mirrors.
OpenAI and all the compeitotrs are all losing money adn will for years. Investors don't care -- they want you to spend money to gain market share. Uber operated for about 15 years before it turned its first profit. They're now the market leader.
