If investors are going to act this way we're gonna have a dotcom level bubble.

Oh, definitely, but keep in mind that a lot of huge companies came out of the dotcom bubble. There was a lot of nonsense, but quite a few well-planned products as well, some of which even succeeded.

I think AI's going to be the same way, at least at first. Long-term there's of course a possibility of takeoff, slow or fast; I don't think we've excluded that yet.

I'm ready for this.

Being ahead of the game has made me some money already. When Bard made a mistake, google stock dropped 10%. I bought knowing that LLMs make mistakes.

So I made $200.

You filthy \w slighty soiled speculator. Another six orders of magnitude, and you'll be worse than Soros.

Tremendous. Tech salaries and exuberant valuations are back on the menu y'all.

A friend of mine just got a 7-digit offer at an AI company, so yes, we are so back

that's how american economics work

from bubble to bubble. the crypto is bust, now it's time for AI to get swelling.... eventually it will pop too

Crypto was a massive innovation unlike AI - I'm referring to the ability to liquidate investments to retail by completely bypassing securities laws. I don't think this AI wave can get to the same level since it's way harder to sell the bubbly assets to the next lemming. Public markets via a traditional IPO won't be able to sustain this bubble.

This is France
