    Y’all believed that bullshit? Seriously? This dude was bad news from day one but Scammy Altman. Felon Musk, Mark Fuggerbeurk, Diarrhea Amodei, Sundar Pagal Bakwaas are all equally at fault.

      unsure, tbh. technically he did activate more money to chase his cards while keeping prices high for large-scale customers, so it would be really difficult to claim he did not act in nvidia’s best financial interest this particular time. sure it’s an evil move, but it’s pro-corporate evil, which is explicitly encouraged under securities legislation.

    “I am shocked there’s gambling in this casino!” moment here.

    But truly, these folks triggered what might be the one of the biggest economic busts in history by creating an entire fake industry around so-called “AI”. Gamers got to be first on the chopping block. Now the rest of the economy is gonna be on the hook.

      I wonder how that’s playing out with corporate customers. My company went from reliable customer to offering employees the choice of macbooks, moving to Google workspace away from m365, and moving to GitHub Enterprise (self hosted) away from GitHub.

    Shattering? Upholding the perception.

    The next bubble is coming. Who is providing the electricity for the coming flood of chips?

    As much as I hate Jensen, I have to admit that he was great in both being a technical visionary and also maximizing profit by extracting everything from his customers.

    So removing him as CEO in a capitalist society makes absolutely no sense to me.

      My conspiracy theory is that the bag-holders didn’t want to get caught when the bubble popped, so they spun up this story of an affair with a woman who could possibly be affiliated with the Chinese government, in order to knock Nvidia off the top spot. Now, Nvidia is going to deflate, and it’s the small players holding the bags.

    Called this months ago. It’s basically the same as the diamond industry. Create false scarcity to increase prices.
