This at the moment is a clear Ponzi scheme.

OpenAI or Nvidia announces some partnership or a deal for X amount of billions. As a result the valuation of the recipient company goes straight to the sky, increasing the market valuation of said company X-times more.

And then try to tell me this isn't a bubble.

These MFers are in SO MUCH TROUBLE it is absolutely insane. There is no way out of this by way of revenue, and this shit should be ILLEGAL. Idiots and morons have taken over the government, and are going to collapse the stock market because OpenAI can't fucking stop making promises.

When we kick Trump out, these assholes should be put in jail.

It's all legal including the massive amout of corporate Socialism required to unfuck this.

If these assholes get bailed out by American tax payers when this shit crashes and burns I'm gonna get real mad.

Well, I'm pretty angry about everything happening in the US already, come to think of it. Oh well. I guess it'll all just crash and burn.

Yesterday there was an article stating that Microsoft has more hardware in inventory than they can actually power on.

Still waiting for the call that they want to partner with me.

At that level why not just build your own?

Part of the grift is passing a bunch of money around at the top.

The 'people in charge' don't even want us poors to know it's possible to host things without the cloud, let alone how much easier and cheaper it is.
