      I guess they are starting to feel the strain of hemorrhaging billions of dollars for data centers.

        They’re figuring if AI is not deeply embeded and people totally addicted to using it by now it’s not ever going to happen, so it’s time to let the trap shut and see what they caught.

          The market is insane. The valuations for stocks connected in any way to “AI” have no connection to reality whatsoever.

            You just described the entire stock market since the dawn of currency.

            AI is just the newest buzzword.

      anthropic started charging a higher token droven method for api access. copilot use the api to talk to claude.

      at build they were pushing local models with nvidia’s new chip and that chip is objectively amazing.
