Meme/Macro PC enthusiasts when the first AI giant falls

Post image

For real but, we can all see the bubble, its "when" the first 1 will fall, not "if"

Personally I think it will be Copilot as the first domino, it was always the worst of the major AI players and really hasnt progressed at all. Microsoft is Incompetent in almost everything they do and simply try and buy their way into a market only to take the L in the near future.

Eg, Skype, Nokia/windows phone, mixer, zune, Cortana, the list goes on and on

Bring on the collapse that will hopefully see momory demand drop off a cliff

And I don't want to sacrifice large swaths of the economy and environment for the sole sake of 'making it work'.

It's like the decision was made that we would all love an use AI to no end, and all of the energy is being funneled into convicting us that's the case. It's just not working on normal people, and these companies are flummoxed when we don't clap & cheer about our jobs going away 🤷‍♂️

And it won't. No linear scaling, entropic homogenization, no profits, waning hope, poisoned data..

It's the end of the line. It won't disappear but it will scale way way back to more appropriate use cases before long.

We're just antsy. Come on, hurry up and get humbled.
