Hmmm.... there's been some discussion here about the possibility of an impending AI crash... and now there's been a dip prompted (in part?) by an MIT paper which suggested almost all AI firms will make zero return - the Q. is whether this is a blip or the beginning of an 'emperor has no clothes' moment?

why bother complying with all the onerous rules that regulate the selling of securities to the public when you can just sell them “tokens” instead?
SpaceX and OpenAI are privately held companies that have disclosed virtually nothing about their businesses to the public (which they would be required to do before selling "shares" instead of "tokens" to mere mortals).

If he could just find a nice church pew somewhere where he could chew gum and slumber. But we mustn't forget the business, tech, and media elites who inflicted him on us.

"The early reviews are in: Trump 2 is a box office disaster.
Trump has now matched his own record as the only president in modern history to post net negative approval ratings just 100 days into a term."
