Fuck AI

A detail that I think needs to be clarified there; OpenAI doesn't actually have the money for those datacentres. What they're doing is convincing other people to spend money building datacentres, by promising that any day now they'll have so many people paying to use their services that of course they'll need more compute capacity than is currently on the entire planet just for their business alone, yeah, just trust me bro, it's a sure fire bet, you can't lose.

And in turn, those investors are signing these big "letters of intent" that say "Yes, absolutely, we are building 100 billion dollars of compute, and don't worry about the fact that right now all we're doing is spending $10million on buying some land and doing a few feasibility studies because it definitely absolutely will be 100 billion very soon and that will make ten trillion in profit and we'll break the universe with how rich we are."

And then US government goes "Here is 10 billion in tax breaks just for saying you will do this thing, you get to keep it even if you never actually spend any money."

And then all the shareholders have a mass collective orgasm and money just spews out of their wallets.

It's scams on scams on scams the whole way down. The whole thing is just juicing share prices.
