SoftBank gonna need some creative accounting when this goes pop. Maybe they could beat [Olympus‘ record](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympus_scandal)
> Despite Olympus‘ denials, the matter quickly snowballed into a corporate corruption scandal[7] over concealment (called tobashi) of more than 117.7 billion yen ($1.5 billion) of investment losses
I ve just watched a video abt Sam Altman….it is just bizzare to me, this whole AI saga.
Turns out that Sam’s first money came from the sell of the app that was supposed to find friends. He said the app had lost of active users, while after selling it to a comapny (forgot the name), it was having just 500 active users on a daily basis, sometimes if even way fewer!
He is basicalyl a great salesman, sells the idea!
Now he is pitching this AI non sense, the company just generates around 13 bn dollars of revenue, yet seeks 1.5 trillion dollars of investment? How on Earh math works here? Not even profitable….
THen, seems to me this AI just solves probles the AI itself has created : dealing with fake videos, verification of real users, and etc….brooo👀👀?!
The whole US economy is built on promises of AI hope….massive bubble to me..
In the mean time I have completely well functioning open source models running on my laptop GPU that are as good as openAI’s best models from a few months ago. And there are even smaller models that come up with great results that run fine on even less impressive hardware like with 1 cpu and no GPU.
I fail to see where OpenAI is going to make money from when completely usable LLM’s are already free and will run on a phone soon.
