If history repeats, we should compare the AI bubble with the dot-com bubble.

“AI-powered” is the new “.com.” Startups are pitching thin wrappers — and this time, many don’t even pretend to own the tech they’re built on.

Look closer, and it’s a house of cards:

Wrappers rely on OpenAI
OpenAI relies on Microsoft
Microsoft needs NVIDIA
NVIDIA owns the chips that power it all
