Watch for sensationalist journalism
When I look at a news feed, I'm bombarded by all the half informed takes that don't provide context to prove a point. Yes, openai is losing money. So is every generative ai company at the moment. But how long did it take Uber to believe profitable? Facebook? Air BnB? or even all the new age sports gambling apps.
At least generative ai companies are trying to provide real value, instead of promote bad behavior. While ai is a tool that can be used to produce brain rot or detect cancer, a gambling app will never produce a statistically positive result. Yes, there is a lot of hype because there is potential value, but the blitz scaling used to rocket tech to the moon strategy didn't go away for the next silicon valley miracle.

More Power!
it's so interesting how many persepctives there are. on one hand, I've heard extensively that Chinese construction is sub par, whether it's the silk road initiative that has produced... interesting results, or even their domestic housing.
Yet at the same time, China is able to accomplish some is the most impressive civil engineering in the world like the three gorges damn or this new nuclear power plant. The ai race will be won or lost via infrastructure, everyone better hope their contraction is as least as good as China...
