"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

The US economy depends on an unsustainable stock market bubble driven by AI companies that are almost all losing money. Nvidia seems healthier, but serious red flags explain why its stock price is extremely volatile, and why its market capitalization dropped $600 billion in just one day. Ben Norton explains.

Depends what "it" is. NVDA is down 4.5% for the month. MSFT down 9%. GOOG is somehow up 24%.

Google made a pro version of Gemini 3. Benchmarks show it works like GPT on their own Tensor processors. All in house, all their own processing, and no external sources to rely on. While I don't like any of this. Google is playing the long slow and boring con. They have all the worlds data. They can keep processing until the end of time.

And that's why they're up. Weirdly they're just outside the self suck circle of openAI Oracle Amd Nvidea etc

It shows as down 3.8% over the last 5 days for me. Down 7.1% over the last month.

Which market? I looked up the S&P.

DJI is up 2% in 5 days. S&P is now up 1.27% over the same period, according to Google, using ICE Data Services data.
