  1. RE: toot.cat/@CptSuperlative/11701

    AI investment strains showing

    The video ... somewhat inadequately contextualised below ... makes the valid point that in a down market, bad assets drag down good ones as leverage, margin requirements, and loan collateral prompt heavily-borrowing ("leveraged") investors to sell anything to meet those obligations.

    As I recall John Kenneth Galbraith made this observation in The Great Crash: 1929, his history of the Wall Street crash of that year which precipitated the Great Depression. Published in 1955, and reprinted many times, it still very much bears reading if you want to understand how financial markets misbehave.

    I of course cannot find the quote I have in mind presently, though I submit for my reader's pleasure a compilation of others from the same author:

  3. “Situational Awareness LP was named for a series of facile essays about machine intelligence published by the improbably-named #LeopoldAschenbrenner, the 24-year-old mastermind of the hedge fund.

    “We are building machines that can think and reason,” he writes, betraying that he has no idea what thinking could possibly mean. “By 2025/26, these #machines will outpace many college #PostGraduates By the end of the decade, they will be smarter than you or I; we will have #superintelligence in the true sense of the word. Along the way, national security forces not seen in half a century will be unleashed, and before long, The Project will be on. If we’re lucky, we’ll be in an all-out race with the CCP; if we’re unlucky, an all-out war.”

    With no understanding of the technology and a ‘greed is good’ credo SA looses billions. 🤨🤣☺️

  5. It was hard for some people to see the value of Thetix in a short time. We just released a new first-time experience to fix that.

    When you sign up, you are dropped into a demo account. You can explore the UI and If you like it, then just sign up for a free 14 day trial and make it your own.

    This way users can see the value right away and decide if it's for them without any commitment.

    Try it: thetix.ai

  7. this spacex ipo analysis is brutal! 😳

    youtube.com/watch?v=IHD8BDFYyGI

    it seems like you really have to be in the cult of musk to go for it...

    why does it feel like everything in the economy and in politics and in tech is driven by cult-like behavior? real "emperor has no clothes on" hours. this is one reason why i prefer living with nature: nature is honest. nature isn't trying to sell you anything or pitch you on anything.

  12. Here's the part that makes him either a good actor or a complete asshole. The "oh shit what if he's serious?" line is in the middle:

    "There's 11,500 employees. It doesn't make sense," he said on the TBPN podcast. "I could run that business from my house. It's eBay, it looks the same as it did in 1995. It doesn't need 11,500 employees."

    "I could run that business from my house" is a pure tell for a certain type of slop-brained AI-cultist CEO who wants to have an employee count of zero and "AI agents" who run things and make money for him (and it's always a "him") while he nudges values back and forth from his mansion by the beach.

    So he's either playing the part perfectly, _or_ a disaster in motion.

  14. #Gamestop buying #eBay?

    youtube.com/watch?v=JGEUktkyAJQ

    Na'h, eBay is going fine.

    It's not a matter of buying Gamestop for $2600M, it's about waiting until they crash into the ground to buy them for $260M.

    Gamestop is not going to die, but is going to shrink more and more until they become irrelevant. That means closing stores, selling other shit, and else.

  16. Kinda neat.

    Idly watching oil prices off to the side, and stonks in the background because of earnings and rates and such

    Feds announce no rate change, traders clearly 100% expecting it, no reaction

    Powell announces he'll stay as a governor after his term as chair is over, jump across all indicies

    Is this traders going "oh thank fuck, the shitstain doesn't get to fill a seat with another fool"? Or just coincidence?

    I dunno either, but it was kinda neat.

    STOCK! GET IT!?

    in them. But hey, can you tell where Shitstain spoke? I sure can!

  22. Stocks tried _really hard_ to have a good day today. Everything rallied. At one point the DJIA was up a whole 1%, which is a good swing up. They tried.

    Market's still open but... it has not worked out.

    The Onion (or course) hits it square on the head with this one:

    “Markets Surge After Trump Claims He Had Sex With An Angel”

    theonion.com/markets-surge-aft

    At this point it’s pretty clear that the “masters of the universe” are in on the grift.

  26. RE: flipboard.com/@ctvnews/busines

    Are ‘business leaders’ really that gullible? All Trump did was pause his deadline until after trading on Friday. Or does reality even matter when the only metric of success in modern business is ‘line go up’?

  28. The goal was never “ai”. The goal was never to make employees lives easier. The goal was never to make the products better. The goal always was to have an excuse to lay off as many people as they possibly can.

    Doesn’t matter if it actually worked, just mattered if it looked like it could ….

  33. So, someone told me that he was "divesting" from northamerican companies and moving to gold and bonds, before euros and yuan.

    His reason? «Once the #AIBubble explodes, the dollar is going to plummet harder than a stone»

    Not a finance guy, but is this true?

    You’re looking at it wrong; think of the OPPORTUNITY for corporate buyers to come in and snap up supply at bargain prices! Then, once they have achieved a majority stake they can crank up the rents as easy as turning on a faucet! Gotta get in now on the ground floor!
