  7. One founder just called out something the VC community has been quietly living with for a while. AI startups are reporting CARR, which counts revenue that hasn't been invoiced and may never be, to the press while labeling it ARR. The gap between those two numbers, per the CEO who went public about it, can run 3 to 5x.

    Here's the part that should make you uncomfortable if you're buying AI tools or evaluating vendors: the VCs aren't getting fooled. They read the contracts. The people getting fooled are journalists writing the coverage you're using to make procurement decisions, and employees who think they're joining a rocketship.

    A few things worth sitting with:
    - Free pilots counted as revenue is not a new trick. It just has a better outfit now.
    - If you're a CIO evaluating an AI vendor's "momentum," ask one question: is that ARR live and invoiced, or contracted?
    - The companies chasing inflated benchmarks they can't actually hit are the ones that will blow up your implementation 18 months in.

    We've been here before. The numbers looked great right up until they didn't.

    Mehr kostenloses Marketing für den "KI"-Scam ...

    Der ganze Softwarestack ist überkomplex, es ist immer nur eine Frage der Zeit bis jemand einen Weg findet, mehr Lücken zu entdecken.

    Die Lösung ist nicht kopfloses Herumhühnern und irgendeine - stand Heute - #Vaporware zu überhöhen, sondern das mal anzugehen ...

    ohne "Anthropic". Die legen Brände (vielleicht in diesem Fall viel Rauch?) und wollen jetzt der Welt selber (rationiert!!) das Löschwasser verkaufen.

    Haha.

  9. 🚀 Ah, the ever-elusive #FIXAPL #beta, the software equivalent of Schrödinger's cat: it exists, but good luck finding anyone who actually uses it. 🙃 More #vaporware from the tech world, proving once again that some betas are better left in the alpha stages. 😂

  14. It’s Official – Trump Phone is Vaporware

    First it was Aug 2025, then Oct, then end of year (maybe). Now it’s______________?

  22. Wow, #AI is such a "revolution" that we're now inventing new acronyms like SDD to justify throwing money at vaporware! 🚀💸 Who knew you could hit a $9.9B valuation with just smoke and mirrors—and maybe a beta registry if you're lucky. 😆✨

  28. #Accelerationists rejoice as King Knucklehead intimidates the refs, as if this would head off his #Tariff-induced #recession against the headwinds.

    Firing the head of #BureauOfLaborStatistics won't help.

    #Manufacturing #Jobs have fallen 3 months straight, and all the #TACO-Tariff rollbacks and #vaporware have not stopped the descent.

    The #Dollar itself is about to topple, and yet he continues to shake the tower.

    Going after #Canada could literally not be more fiscally suicidal.

  36. Only 13 Thousand stars in the twelve hours since it was open sourced? lolz...

    Oh, and a big congrats on another incrementally successful launch of #Starship a couple of days ago too!

    More often than not, he's ahead of the curve, and the world loves a #Maverick that leverages their free market industrialist prowess toward #philanthropic ends.

    Now if we can just convince him to ditch all that electric car bullshit (as good as he does it) that are piling up in backlogs at our ports because there's no more room on the car lots coz nobody wants them, and people are enslaved, working in the mines that produce the rare earth components of those poison batteries that run on the #coal and #petroleum that would be better utilized just to produce the electricity that we already consume.

    Not to mention the ecological hazard those batteries pose, if they don't explode and incinerate the occupants of electric vehicles first; at least there's virtually no place to charge those vehicles, often stranded and scattered about like tombstones in a graveyard in the snow. - the grid couldn't take the load even if the government had managed (but failed miserably) to install all the #vaporware that they said would be charging stations everywhere anyway. And the only half-way decent charging stations out there are #Elon's anyway, and won't charge the legions of #EVs by other manufacturers that are just sitting, collecting dust, on the showroom floor.

    Nevermind that #CNG is a cheap, clean way to power vehicles today, #Hydrogen is on its way, but research funding is attenuated by the lobbying efforts of special interest groups that instead promote the toxic and unsustainable electric vehicle industry.

    Anyway, had Elon been alone in his quest to deliver quality EVs, I think the difference he would have made in that sector could have grown organically for those who aren't concerned about the death and suffering of those who mine the resources necessary to produce those undercarriage bombs that power those vehicles. But I digress, and this boost is about all the magnanimous contributions that #Musk has shared like #The_Boring_Company, #SpaceX, #Neuralink, ... Yeah, even #Tesla ;)

    #tallship #Go_Elon!

    The #vaporware #Musk puckering up to the rightwing GOP base in an attempt to cover his ass after failing on so many fronts.

    His #Tesla truck, #SpaceX, #Neuralink, #Hyperloop / #BoringCompany, the laughable #TeslaBot -- all complete scams.
    This #twitter deal shows how much of an incompetent "business" man he really is.

    And the people say to him, "shut up and take my money!"
