  If you don’t embrace AI you stand very high chance of being irrelevant in the future.

    Does relevance translate into earnings?

  There are companies making money in this business. They have names like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc….

  Then there are other companies in this business who are also making money. They have names like Amazon, Google, Meta, etc….

  Then there are some more companies who are making money in this business. They have names like NVIDIA, Intel, AMD, etc….

  Now, how much profit any of them are making, compared to their costs and their committed outlays, that’s a different matter.

  But while you’re riding that bubble, it is vital that you always sell the crap out of those shovels, so that you can keep making that bubble bigger.

    My question goes exactly beyond the companies you mentioned, which are related to AI models.

    We pray to OpenAI for giving us this gift of subsidized tokens. We thank Anthropic for giving us this gift of subsidized tokens.

    May the tokens be everlasting.

    Amen.
