These bonzos want the world economy to collapse so there will be massive layoffs, allowing them to offer AI bots to companies and governments to replace human workers.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Amazon didn't go the AI route that far. They are a marketplace for AI-gen products, they added summaries to their storefronts, but there is that as far as I know. What Bezos probably wants - is to see newer weirdos like Altman, maybe Musk to get choked, so he becomes the uncontested capitalist #1.

bezos is at odds with ketamine musk, he wants to be the only space company.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the biggest provider of compute resources and servers in the world. They have huge data centres full of servers and Nvidia GPUs that they rent out to AI companies. Almost every fortune 500 spends 7-8 figures $$$ on aws services a year and a lot of smaller companies spend 6-7 figures too.

Amazon invested billions in anthropic who incidentally use their GPUs and sell access to their models via AWS too.

They certainly have skin in the game when it comes to LLMs/GenAI.
