> interest rates go up

This is kind of a cynical tech startup take:

- ragging on VC's - calling something a bubble

Interest rates are on their way back down btw.

Funding has looked to be running out a few times for OpenAI specifically, but most frontier model development is reasonably well funded still.

If interest rates are on their way down, why has the 10Y treasury yield increased 50 points over the last month? https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/US10Y

Because they previously decreased more under the expectation of another half point cut by the fed. Stronger economic indicators have cut the expectation for steep rate cuts so treasuries are declining.

It also dropped 40 points over the last six months.

completely wrong, where have you been the past month? 10Y t-notes are actually UP after the fed's hysterical 50 basis point cut lol
