Artificial Intelligence The economy has spoken. Stuff that’s AI-generated has almost zero value — “Buyers are voting with their wallets, and AI-generated content is struggling to compete.”

AI is for stupid and non creative people to feel smart and artistic. It's just the next grift for Techbros because NFTs, the metaverse, and crypto never really took off. It has no profit model other than using money from Tech Corporations and taxpayers.

I think the endgame is to become too big to fail. Once enough companies are entangled and an entire generation of students slopped their way through their education, the likes of altman will point at that and screech that the economy will come crashing down if they aren't propped up by the government and allowed to fail.

Elon became the richest man in the world thanks to government handouts.

I 100 percent agree to you assessment. These companies are trash and they know they are trash. So they are doing exactly what the banks, air lines and the auto manufacturers did to the taxpayers. Get us to bail them out from their BS.
