Long essay about the AI Bubble
"I believe that the generative AI market is a $50 billion revenue industry masquerading as a $1 trillion one, and the media is helping.
"The AI Trade Is Entirely About GPUs, And Is Incredibly Brittle As A Result
"As I've explained at length, the AI trade is not one based on revenue, user growth, the efficacy of tools or significance of any technological breakthrough.
"Stocks are not moving based on whether they are making money on AI, because if they were, they'd be moving downward.
"However, due to the vibes-based nature of the AI trade, companies are benefiting from the press inexplicably crediting growth to AI with no proof that that's the case.

This is a bubble and when it pops, it's not going to be pretty.
@warden @Bwee Yes - #BeyondAllReason is most excellent
@patterfloof Shocking! Actually useful information? What a novelty
@ActuallyAubrey If you see it later, it's an alligator

<- for those with reading skills in the single-digit-years range, it's about "AI"
@ahf Technically, it's not wrong...
This is really important advice, especially for anyone dealing with mental health struggles or a chronic illness.
I can tell I may have made the gravy a little thick, when people ask how big a slice of it they want
Edit: Click through for the typical BS govt response that’s been added… 🙄
Are you in the UK and opposed to providing ID to use social media in the coming weeks?
There’s an official parliament petition to repeal the Online Safety Act, and it’s already at 13,000 signatures and growing: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/722903
(Not UK? Please spread the word!)
That's 5D-educational chess.
Most people use the term, "luddite" incorrectly. A luddite wasn't against technology, as you all seem to think they were, but against needless technology ruining people's livelihoods and churning out bad quality shite. Given the state of 2025, we should all aspire to be luddites.
From my local WhatsApp group:
The Welsh Government are doing a consultation on its pro-trans schools policy. UK Gender Critical activists are upset and are trying to brigade it to push it in an anti-trans direction. Please fill out the consultation to try to reinforce the pro-trans stance.

The deadline is 31 July 2025.
NB: Please only respond if you live in Wales! If you don't but want to help, please boost this and share it on other social networks. Thank you. ✨
@sosh Presumably some sort of deep red colour
@papush Oh we do crime. Just ours are more subtle ;)
@beeps If a coffee shop forced you to have cake and cookies with every cup and charged extra for the "privilege", they'd rapidly lose customers.
Doubly so if the cookie recipes were stolen from uncompensated folks and made from an ungodly mix of butter and steel washers.
