With OpenAI being at the center of the AI hype, I would've thought they'd be raking in the dough instead of losing $5 billion. So it's really just Nvidia making money on this bullshit, huh? It'll hurt when the hype dies down and Nvidia drops from the second top spot on the S&P 500. We're all going to feel that one.
- You know, to make money in a gold rush, don't dig, sell shovels.
  
  And Nvidia has really fancy shovels.
  
  What is AI gold then?
Fuckin LLM bubble needs to burst already. I want some crazy compute cards to play with.

Also, who knew the only people who would pay 2400/yr for access would bebe the ones who plan to make hundreds of queries per day. What do like, people try to think about value for money before they buy stuff?! What are you all… like not filthy rich?! Ew.
That's because the whole thing is stupid. Is made by stupids, marketed to stupids, paid by stupids, and for the most part used by stupids. Because they're stupid.

There's a pattern in there if you look closely.
- I feel like you're putting it down, but for the life of me, I am not picking it up. Can you please try explaining again, but slower? Use simple words. Like I'm stupid or something.
  
  I think he's trying to say it's marketing's fault.
- Or you're stupid because you can't use LLMs effectively, don't understand their value, and now you're angry because of that.
- The amount of money stupid gives to stupid, though. Makes my stomach churn. So much for so little.
Strange coincidence right as they want to convert to a for-profit company structure. "Bro we are not even making profits, nothing to see here bro"
