    I never pay attention to the $10,000 or so I have left in my inheritance. Long story, I get $1,000 a year to save taxes until it’s gone, or something?

    Looked today. 5.4% is in NVIDIA, top stock in my micro portfolio.

    Quite telling that these guys are trying to get ahead of the crash, “We told you so!” Reminds me of the GOP voting to release the Epstein files. “I was on the right side of this all along!”

    Me looking at my portfolio consisting only of GameStop stock from 2021:

      I thought you were playfully conflating google with MS given they’re equally fucked in 2025, but I looked this up anyway and holy damn.

    Sam Altman told reporters at a private dinner in August that investors are “overexcited” about AI models and that “someone” will lose a “phenomenal amount of money.”

    That feels almost like taunting.

    They try to quickly get into the “too big too fail” area and I feel that they are succeeding…

    And in the end the small guys are the fucked as always with BS like this

    Especially the users. How likely is it that removing the AI integration would be easy or painless. Speaking from someone who had a third of a website cancelled due to database issues (never fucking work for, or on behalf of, fruit of the loom. Pants on head ret@rded, the lot of em.), you can’t just start ripping out code.

    I think Apple will get out clean. They are trading some of that Google default search engine $$ for renting Google’s AI. Amazingly, Microsoft has pulled way back on AI investment as well.
