I am wondering if OpenAI is turning itself (with the help of the other complicit parties to its β€œdeals”) into a β€œtoo big to fail” entity. Will the US taxpayer end up bailing them all out to prevent a stock market and/or full economy collapse?

None of it is in writing and never will be. Just more smoke and mirrors to distract the gullible which seems to be most of the americans. πŸ™„

So to be clear, the Mag 7 are spending around $560B during 2024-2025 to give us things like automated form filling and error-prone internet search engines? The capex is obscenely high to achieve something like $35B in revenue. AI bubble going to pop and be ugly.

Donald Trump’s signature legislation would menace the American economy for at least a decade. It is a showcase of fiscal incontinence and ideological exhaustion https://econ.st/4kvmdT2

The Trump budget math is simply this: Cut taxes for the rich, cut spending that helps everyone else, and pay for it by taxing working Americans through tariffs.

Trump attends 'Les MisΓ©rables' at the Kennedy Center after taking over the institution President Donald Trump has taken his seat in the president's box for opening night of the award-winning musical β€œLes MisΓ©rables” at the Kennedy Center.

Why do I think that he’ll be cheering for Javert and believe he’s the hero?
