Now you can keep track of how many billions companies are losing on GenAI.

It's one giant circle-jerk

@GossiTheDog I've got a bridge in London to sell them..

@GossiTheDog for colour blind people, the upper is spending and the lower is revenue

That companion piece is missing Anthropic and some of the recent moves there. Still pretty enlightening. It's crazy the amount of money that's getting shifted around

[cleanduck@mastodon.social]

@GossiTheDog this is quite interesting, what are we thinking when the penny finally drops? NVIDIA go down? They’re about the only ones with actual assets, albeit depreciating ones. But surely their stock is inflated?

[lordcaramac@discordian.social]

@GossiTheDog It is quite profitable. For Nvidia. Not so much for all the others.

xAI: Since '23: spend $20B revenue 0.8$B. -$19.2B

[raz2701@mastodon.social]

@GossiTheDog if red is spending and green is revenue then put that info in the fucking website no?

[cgervasi@fosstodon.org]

@GossiTheDog It's a huge gamble. I think AI will create enormous value, but enough to justify company's valuations? I really hope so. I don't know.

[mpaluchowski@mastodon.online]

@GossiTheDog it'd be useful to see how they're doing over time. Someone claimed lately that Anthropic is close to becoming profitable. But I guess that data is hard to come by.

[f800gecko@mastodon.online]

@GossiTheDog

What?

Nvidia's doing okay.

lol

Heaven help us in the reckoning.

[mayleen@infosec.exchange]

@GossiTheDog
Green is also spending. Spending of all those lost souls that throw money into the magic ai pond and hope for a miracle in return

The folks that sold picks and shovels to all the punters during the gold rushes did fine too.

AI was never going to create a revenue generating product.

According to Sam Altman, it's a rent-seeking economic activity, that will enrich billionaires beyond their wildest fantasies.

According to Koch Network, it's wasteful fossil fuel burner with a side of automated disinformation & election meddling.

According to tech oligarchs like Larry Ellison, Andreessen, Peter Thiel, & Elon Musk, it is a democracy destroyer.

For the oil industry, it's money laundering.
