  • Am I too dumb to read or this thread is heavily botted? Why most top comments are unrelated to the linked site (which is pretty obscured already)?

  • Warren Buffet way

    Revolutionary technology + massive adoption ≠ good investment

    Investors have poured money into a bottomless pit, attracted by the growth and glamour of the industry. The airline industry since its birth has had a collective net loss, in aggregate, despite moving hundreds of millions of people.

  • A while ago I was thinking, “Gee, AI is so complicated, how can I keep up with the landscape?”

    After reading these articles go by so often, it feels like what I actually can’t keep up with is the bond market. To paraphrase Trotsky, you may not be interested in the bond market, but the bond market is interested in you. I want to be able to read the signals at the bottom of this article, and divine some kind of prediction that can guide me… I don’t know, to choose whether I should buy a house or change the investment strategy in my retirement fund or something. But I’m just seeing all these signals go by, waiting for the story to be written, which only happens when the dust settles.

    I guess I’ll go back to not understanding AI, instead of not understanding the bond market.
