    Yes. There's no question the industry has been but so much walking as running towards needing to be bailed out

    It definitely feels like they’re setting up the pieces in order to do a bailout in all but name

      Can't these companies needing 200 billion in funding to get to a viable product just die off (err, sell themselves to someone else) instead of wasting/spending/grifting for so much money? Eventually so much of the startup or engineering world's investment money going to these companies is going to hurt.

    AI has never floated on it's own and is sinking on launch

    and will sink no matter how hard it's bailed

    the only,ONLY, reasons there is any use of AI by the public is that there are no longer phone books or directorys, and search has been broken by adds
