The air begins to leak out of the overinflated AI bubble

Thank fucking god.

I got sick of the overhyped tech bros pumping AI into everything with no understanding of it…

But then I got way more sick of everyone else thinking they’re clowning on AI when in reality they’re just demonstrating an equal sized misunderstanding of the technology in a snarky pessimistic format.

I’m more annoyed that Nvidia is looked at like some sort of brilliant strategist. It’s a GPU company that was lucky enough to be around when two new massive industries found an alternative use for graphics hardware.

They happened to be making pick axes in California right before some prospectors found gold.

And they don’t even really make pick axes, TSMC does. They just design them.

Go ahead and design a better pickaxe than them, we’ll wait…

My fucking god.

“Buying a lottery ticket, and designing the best GPUs” totally the same thing, amiriteguys???"

His engineers built it, he didn’t do anything there
