Looks like the shovel seller is making quite a bit

[–] artyom@piefed.social 13 points 1 week ago

Indeed, they're the only ones. Along with Samsung, SK Hynix, AMD, etc.

This is interesting. Nvidia cashing in while they can. They'll come back to us consumers when/if all this AI stuff collapses.

Wow, I like that "spent since page load".

I want a ticker like that "Lemmy pages since bong load".

"So what did you do with the $100,000?"

"I invested it and turned it into sixteen THOUSAND dollars. "

im betting sam altman asked claude instead of CHAPGPT to how much to invest and where.

Do you know how to make a small fortune with AI?

First, start with a big fortune...

Altman is such a miserable cunt.

he pretty much is created by thiel, so yes he is. since ALtman met his husband at one of thiels "pool" parties. just like how he plucked vance out of obscurity from yale. he does love his gay puppets.

Then it didn’t make 13 billion….. and it didn’t lose 21 billion.

It lost 8 billion. That’s how math works.

[–] percent@infosec.pub 5 points 1 week ago

You're not wrong, but neither is the title. That's just how business accounting works. Ultimately, it's still the same conclusion ($8 billion loss)

[–] ScruffyDucky@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (3 children)

You have to spend money to make money :)

[–] frunch@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Sometimes you have to spend more than you make but that doesn't mean it's a bad idea! You just have to continue spending and one day it'll maybe start turning a profit. Maybe not, though! 🙂 I love AI

[–] ScruffyDucky@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Thank you very much for explaining what I meant.

[–] potustheplant@feddit.nl 1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Are you being facetious or are you just dumb?

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

They're being facetious but it's actually what AI investors are thinking. AI can lose money until it's the only AI company left then they can charge whatever they want.

I had an AI engineer tell me that hallucinations are actually AI having original thoughts. Zzzzz

Are you serious? You don't know much about this if you think that's what's going on.

Bah that's baby numbers compared to what "private space" will accomplish!

[–] NarrativeBear@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

This is what you call a succesful business man /s

[–] skankhunt42@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago

If someone gave me 21billion I bet I could only lose 1 billion, return the 20, and never be seen again.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 2 points 1 week ago

This was standard operating procedure for Silicon Valley companies before COVID.

[–] abc@suppo.fi 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

That's a weird way of saying that they had a net loss of $8 billion. Are you trying to imply that this is somehow extraordinary for a growth company?
