when this bubble pops it's gonna be horrific.
google, meta, ms, so many more leveraged out huge investments in datacenters. nvidia is propping up whole segments of the fucking economy.

it'd be fun to watch if I could isolate myself from the chaos that will ensue, but we're all gonna get fucked by the aibros, it's only a question of which segment of the economy blows up first.
Came here to see if someone had mentioned Ed Zitron's blog. His last two pieces on the AI bubble are fantastic reads.
pretty sure someone here linked it, it's a long read and worth it.
Any chance you have a link,?

Thanks buddy!
Damn. We're looking at another recession when this bubble bursts, aren't we?
Just great.
recessions work themselves out. I'm worried it'll pitch us into a worldwide depression coupled with trump's tarriff bullshit.
it's the 1920s all over again. smoot hawley fascists and clouds of war
