AI May Not Be Worth The Cost — Here’s Why
Summary
Prof G and Scott Galloway analyze the upcoming IPOs of SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic, comparing the current AI hype to the 1999 dot-com bubble. They argue that despite high valuations, these companies lack profitability, warning that AI costs are outpacing returns and leading to potential market corrections. The discussion also covers the rise of cheaper Chinese AI models and predicts a shift toward traditional tech stocks like Amazon as investors seek safer, diversified assets.
