Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

“You shouldn’t be debating whether AI has ROI… you don’t get to do that anymore. You’ve burned over $1trn on this.” Author of Where Your Ed At and host of the Better Offline podcast joins The Tech Report’s Isaac Pound to dig into OpenAI’s leaked financials and how AI has hit a price wall with token-based billing. Ed's detailed breakdown of OpenAI's financials: www.wheresyoured.at/exclusive-openai-financials/

"I think it could get really weird and messy very soon" -Ed on what is going to happen as investors realize AI is toxic to profit.

Not only is AI a technology that hasn't panned out as broadly transformative or useful, it is being propped up by extremely sketchy financials at least with OpenAI.

Broadcom, Micron Technologies, and Intel too. NVIDIA is on the order of 7.5% of the S&P500 by market cap today. I would not bet real money that it will be there or above in 2029.
