🤦♂️ Oh look, another tech article predicting doom for Apple while simultaneously drooling over their nonexistent products like the "iPhone Fold" and "iOS 27." 🌪️ Because clearly, when the AI bubble pops, Tim Cook will be roasting marshmallows on the ashes, right? 🔥

OpenAI ist pleite und braucht eine Bürgschaft von Nvidia. Die zirkulare Abhängigkeit nimmt zu und damit das Clusterrisiko an den Börsen.
Es geht hier um hunderte von Milliarden.

'Yang told Fortune that AI agents can’t fully participate in the online economy yet because payments and liability aren’t solved.
“If we don’t have the infrastructure to do proper payments for agents, then agents aren’t buying and selling, and if agents aren’t buying and selling, then they aren’t generating economic activity,” Yang said.'
As usual, the Tech Industry sees the "Horrible Future Dystopia" as their next "Business Plan".

"'Checking out a parallel copy of our Go repository and telling the AI to rewrite the whole thing in Zig while I work on something else just so I can keep my job. I hate this shit so much. My job has usage tracking and quotas. I don’t use it for actual work, I just spin it up and disregard the output'.

Local Councils are building huge ai #datacentres in the UK, right next to #cleanairzones where you get penalised for driving to work.
those #datacentres will use tonnes of fresh water and emit vast amounts of co2
..but dont forget to insulate your walls or you'll get fined..

"Put simply, every time somebody builds a data center, they form a completely separate entity that owns the chips, owns the debt, and, in many cases, owns most of the risk. These SPVs only pay out to their creditors in the event that customer revenue flows in, which means that they are dependent both on the speed of construction of said data centers and their customers’ ability to pay."

“In other words, you don't get rich from stock speculation by identifying the businesses whose profitability will grow the most – you get rich by identifying the businesses that other investors will pile into, pushing the price up. All you need to do is sell your shares after the price spike, but before anyone else figures out that the business is a turkey. It's like that old joke: "I don't need to run faster than the bear (market), I just have to run faster than you."
From the perspective of a cynical AI investor, the question isn't, "Can AI do your job?" The question is, "Can an AI salesman convince your boss that an AI can do your job?" So long as enough bosses are convinced to fire workers and replace them with AI, AI valuation will continue to climb, and if they time the market right, they can get out before those valuations crash. This proposition gets even sweeter if the CEO of the AI company is in bed with financial regulators and stock exchanges, and can force your financial advisor to buy his worthless AI stock with "little people's”

"Google’s investment in AI has pumped so much money into AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI and into data centres to run AI with expensive ‘chips’ made by Nvidia, that its huge cash revenues are no longer covering the cost of investment. ‘Free cash flow’, as it is called, went negative for the first time in Alphabet’s history."

I have been lobbying for #regulateAi since 2023
The main obstacle amongst the people (not the broligarchs) was (and is) an absolute incredulity and ignorance about the capabilies of #ai
Even today, the so called 'opponents' of Ai know very little of its capabilities, and many pride themselves on their ignorance of what Ai can do.
Anything from "that's not actually Ai, that's a spicy autocorrect"
To "That's not Ai, its just a computer doing computer.things"
Most, opponents dance around bonefires in the woods, praying for #aibubble to burst, as if that's going to make the problem go away.

This Nortel Networks internal employee video sums up 1996-2001 telecom bubble perfectly.
To be honest most economic calculations would've held up if Ciena wouldn't had brought DWDM (Dense Wavelength-Division Multiplexing) to market in 1996.
After DWDM you could just lease two fibre lines (one for backup) and bolt on DWDM multiplexers at each end of the fibre to get 16 x 2.5 Gbps of bandwidth from a single fibre with the initial Ciena DWDM deployment. (5 min)

Японська фінансова газета «#Nikkei Asia» у ході нещодавнього розслідування з’ясувала, що п’ять американських технологічних гігантів — #Alphabet, #Microsoft, #Amazon, #Meta та #Oracle — приховують борг у 1,65 трлн доларів. На балансі у них офіційно 1,35 трлн доларів боргу.
Лише Meta накопичила позабалансовий #борг у розмірі близько 420 мільярдів доларів.

Nikkei Asia just did an explosive report on how Big Tech is hiding around USD 1 TRILLION of AI data centre debt in SPVs (Special Purpose Vehicle) off their balance sheets through leasing structures. Ed Zitron breaks it down for us. (19 min)

The amount of risky debt in this #AIBubble is making me hopeful that some of the worst companies currently in existence will soon wipe themselves out in the pursuit of worthless slop.
Given how much of Musk's wealth is entirely fictional, it would be hilarious if he was the first domino to fall.
