If the criteria is podcasting a large number of videos with minimal engagement they should give DSP a VC fund.

There’s something even more pathetic about the blue collar good goyim. At least the 28yo woman with the email job is according to their TikToks spending half the day in the cafeteria and replying to Microsoft Teams messages. Imagine being proud of being worked harder than a nigger in the Antebellum South.

Just admit that you were a retard about A.I.

Yesterday, I sold all of my AI stocks: NVIDIA, Meta, Microsoft.

I got in at a good time, and those positions have been phenomenal for my portfolio. But as they say, all good things must come to an end.

It's not that I've stopped believing. Agentic AI will transform our world. What we already see with coding assistants is just the beginning - automation will sweep through a wide range of jobs and industries.

But two things happened recently that made me pause and re-evaluate my position - one subjective, one objective.

First, the subjective element - one of the big unknowns of the AI boom is whether adoption will keep pace with the infrastructure and talent investment pouring in. Hyperscalers and labs are building at a breathtaking rate, AI engineers are being offered salaries north of $100M, yet revenues - while substantial and growing - are on a very different curve. Enterprises face real adoption hurdles: ROI that doesn't always look as compelling as promised, cultural resistance, regulatory drag, and sheer change-management friction. The debate over whether this is simply the natural "early innings" of a transformation on par with the Industrial Revolution or the making of a bubble has been around for a while. But even for me, as someone who believes and is invested in AI, it's starting to feel more like a bubble.

Which brings me to the objective. The latest generation of models - Grok 4, ChatGPT 5, even Qwen 3 - are a canary in the coalmine. They represent incremental improvements at best, not the step-changes many of us were hoping for (and some of us - counter-factually - keep telling ourselves they represent). Enough to drive solid agentic capabilities that improve workflows across industries, but nowhere near enough to deliver "artificial general intelligence" any time soon - that elusive point where machines surpass human intelligence or can recursively improve themselves into a runaway cycle of ever-increasing cognitive ability. And yet AGI hype underpins much of today's lofty valuations.

My concern is that the market may soon face a double realization: The financial upside of AI will take longer to materialize than many assume. And we are much closer to the ceiling of the current technology generation than Elon Musk and Sam Altman would like us to believe.

That combination could trigger a significant correction in AI stock prices - and I suspect that day may come sooner than we think.

The real solution to this problem is removing all the fingers of whoever allowed companies selling LLM products to call them "AI".

ETA: and the thumbs.

According to this Forbes article he comes from a humble background and built his investment-themed podcast and VC firm from ground up.

The Bri’ish elite have been LARPing as the working class for decades and this Stebbings faggot is no exception. Yeah, some random nigga making a podcast about venture capital resulted in someone willing to give this kid hundreds of millions of dollars. It’s just that easy!

The irrational exuberance surrounding AI is the fantasy that white collar labor can be slashed to the bone. Every heccin’ c-suite imagines them telling a prompt to put together whatever complex analyses they want, hit the easy button, and then they can lay off their staff of analysts, programmers, and engineers.

Imagine being able to lay off $50 million per year in white collar labor for a singular enterprise license. This is how AI gets sold at the executive level. That’s why they want it NOW NOW NOW! Of course, when they find that they can’t do this, that is when AI’s hype will die off. That’s why there’s this obsessive need about trying to get fully generative AI. They want their corporate easy button so they can AI generate a bunch of pink slips as the next step.

Of course even if they get it, the infrastructure costs are still not going to pencil out. I expect mass consolidations in the coming years. Those AI engineers making millions of dollars will get laid off, just like all those Xitter or Netflix software engineers who got paid $500k a year to work a few hours from home per week. They all have been getting slowly but surely let go since 2023.

Multimillionaire musician Will.i.am says work-life balance is for people ‘working on someone else’s dream’ and not for visionaries—he grinds from 5-to-9 after his 9-to-5​

• It’s not just Gen Z and millennials on TikTok who are raving about the 5-to-9 after their 9-to-5. Black Eyed Peas’ Will.i.am is also a fan of the productivity hack. He says it’s the secret to getting his creative juices flowing, as well as ditching work-life balance.

Will.i.am is busy. When he’s not writing hit songs like “OMG” for Usher, he’s looking for the next big pop star on The Voice UK, or running his new AI company, FYI. So how exactly does he balance it all?

The Grammy Award–winning artist turned tech entrepreneur revealed to Fortune that he maxes out the 5-to-9 after the daily grind of his 9-to-5, and he advises Gen Zers to forget about work-life balance if they want to emulate his success.

nah that hustle retardery actually does make sense when you're self-employed or own the company. Do this crazy grind shit if you're a popstar or rapid prototyping lab owner. William is setting a good example for kids in the age of zero job security and zero respect from your employer. Only work for yourself if you're going to do the 24 hour work day.

Boomers using actual "yet you live in a society" type arguments will never not be funny.

[Montalbane]

I have a rather decent work life balance.
If you need 18 hour workdays as an employee you are just shit at your job.

Employers have successfully clawed back any employee leverage that was had in 2020-2022 and then some. Now it’s worse than ever because employers enjoy dangling threats like AI and H1Bs, which they will do anyway, no matter how hard you are working. The AI bubble is all about the desire to hack and slash through white collar labor. They just want a big easy button they can press and then fire all their accountants, analysts, and engineers. The fact that trillions are being spent to get rid of white collar labor shows how myopic they are but some CXOs will talk about 2020-2022 like they have PTSD: “…and I had to give him a 10% raise or else he was going to our competitor .” They hated that and I warned niggas here that they will try to take revenge at the first opportunity and now they found it.

Corporate cucks on LinkedIn talking about AI are like cattle who praise the slaughterhouse or chickens who constantly hype up the foxes that are surrounding the coop. They think by being a cheerleader they will somehow be spared or even more delusionally, will be the management that will be pressing the AI easy button and giving their now former coworkers their pink slips. They don’t think the next round of layoffs could ever happen to them. If it does, there will be a novella-length post on LinkedIn about how they still love the company that just fired them. It’s crazy out there.

i don't know how that even works out well for the companies in the end when cutting those jobs would also imply cutting out of the consumer econnomy a big chunk of the people who would be costumers for the slop the companies make. I hope their top indian talent finds a way to get the AI to buy its own products when everyone is out of a job and can barely afford to live.

It's a sales manager for a specific product (or service) line. You can't just call sales managers sales managers the same way you can't just call secretaries secretaries, we've evolved beyond those primitive forms.

It’s all short sighted myopic thinking. They don’t care what the implications are about getting rid of white collar labor at a societywide level, they just know that if they do it, their stock price will surge and they’ll get a fat bonus for doing so. If that easy button doesn’t turn out the way they hoped, they plan to be long gone by then. Then a private equity firm can scoop up their assets for pennies on the dollar, funded via debt, and the business is responsible for paying off that debt plus the private equity fees that get tacked on because the PE firm needs their fat bonuses too. That PE firm wants a 15% return, even though historically the company never went higher than 12%. So that means more layoffs, no O&M investment, and using cheaper materials.

the biggest cope is that they will offset the damage with UBI and more wellfare, so printing more fake money and burdening the workforce that still stays productive and has a job with more taxes to subsidize laid off people buying slop made with AI so the economy doesn't crash. Sounds like fun times, only a little stir up before we live in star trek. The next bubble is gonna be quantum computing and i'll bet they'll promise real AGI and replicators by then.
