How do I make money off this?
I want Cassandra levels of fuck you I told you so.
I'm going to give it some thought and then I'll tell you what I'm going to do.
DO THE OPPOSITE OF THAT.
My decision is 99.99999% guaranteed to be the wrong one. It always is lol
Short all these stocks of course. SOXS is a 3 times leverage short on semiconductors if you are feeling bold.
The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent
Tesla has been clearly overvalued for years. Had you tried to make money off shorting the stock - despite correctly observing this stock has to collapse at some point - you would have lost your shirt.
Yeah, I wouldn't take trading advice from a group of people who are desperately hoping a for a certain technology to not exist.
Is AI overhyped and overused? Absolutely. Is its use doing to decrease? Most likely. Will it "collapse"? Don't bet on it. Or, well, do - I suppose. It's your money to lose.
As OP of this comment, I fully agree and strongly dissuade anyone from pursuing the ideas I am giving.
I wish u were right. I'm really not convinced its use will decrease. Agents are being weeded into ever bloody service on the internet. AI and the internet will be one thing. AI is convinient and human nature does not like complexity. Humans thrive in environments that make life easy. Internet, social media and amazon are what they are today because of convinience. AI bring convinience! I do not believe that AI will go down ... it eill certainly stop growing so quickly but eventually we will find AI in our coffe machine and our toothbrush.

comments like this inspire me to become financially literate so that i could understand what was said.
It just means that when they finallystop buying semiconductors to fuel datacenters they aren't even building and the semiconductor stocks crash, SOXS will go up 3x for every dollar the semiconductors go down. Only problem is that no one can guess when that is, even if many are sure it's coming. It feels like soon but don't make financial decisions based on what some idiot says on the internet.
thanks and i'm confused by whatever "SOXS" is/means.
This is probably not a good opportunity for you then. It's not something a beginner should do. Probably I shouldn't have brought it up at all.
i wasn't planning on doing anything besides learning.
How do we short stock for amateurs
soxs Is actually traded as a normal stock- they do the shorting for you. But since it's triple leveraged it's very risky. If you get it wrong you lose 3x the money of a normal short. If you want to learn how to short normally (single leverage) you can ask gemini, I've found it to be pretty good with financial training and explaining the ins and outs of specific trading platforms. But know this. With shorting you can go past zero into debt , as a stock can go up more than 100%, so you can lose more than 100% of your money. It's not really where you should start as a beginner. Maybe a better way to bet against AI is just to bet on old fashioned value stocks or ones paying big dividends, as they are mostly quite beaten down now.
These days ChatGPT would respond:
"Money is printed in a mint, or more commonly deposited digitally into your bank account"
Then you'd need eight more clarifying comments before it "understood" what you were saying. This is because it was trained on reddit text.
Let´s see! 40 trillions in debt (to a private bank corporation which they will pay interest rate 1 trillion/year (this money disappear in private pocket :)). GDP 32 trillion so even trying hard, can´t pay the debt will be for life growing.
But the total debt is 100 trillion not 40, so there is more to it, 60 trillion more to pay interest rate to.

Bitcoin casino is not rendering anymore, people understood that is a pure scam. Now it comes the AI scam that magically drain your wallet out of thin air (tokens). Companies start losing half a billion because they forgot to switch off the tokens, and they call it a business, like the stock market. They found a weakness in people, gambling and they are using it. Even though with all the tricks there is no more money to squeeze out of people. Now 3 AI companies go public asking for more trillions, from where, You squeezed Canada, Australia, England and all your friends and enemies. Digital currency will come live soon, that's your solution, lame, poor people? How does it work? You create a project open source with free labor, and if it goes well you privatize it non profit, get funded from public tax and switch to profit corporation. Then you get a funding of 30 billion with evaluation 15x 500billions. Then you have a dinner with the gov and suddenly are evaluated 1 trillion. I see, now I Understand, One or more of this companies will fail and take all the blame and I feel sorry for all the pension funds that will hold the bag of this manipulation.
Who will take the fall, X-AI, OpenAI, Anthropic?
Just another scam
Yes in the sense that Chornobyl was "just another" powerplant failure.
The fallout will be existentially disastrous especially as leaders are clearly already in denial about how it has failed and they are willing to lock in enormous damage to sustain that denial.
The loss of Gulf states’ capital risk IPO plans by SpaceX, now merged with xAI, OpenAI and Anthropic. All these companies urgently need to go public, as it’s the only place they have left to raise the vast amounts of capital they need. SpaceX plans to go first in June. Its entire pitch to investors hinges on launching its data centers in space for xAI. OpenAI plans to follow soon after, but its chief financial officer, Sarah Friar, has warned that “company isn’t yet ready to meet the rigorous reporting standards required of a public company.” Hardly reassuring for a company worth $875 billion.
The immediate impact of the "iran war" is not simply in fossil energy, but also on a huge range of fossil fuel byproducts on which AI and many other industries depend. The global economy is still very much a fossil fuel economy, and AI is locking us even further into it.
I was thinking about how if there is any silver lining to the conflict, its that it deobfuscates some of the complex links in modern supply chains and it also makes salient how even some of the techno-optimist environmental and technical solutions are all underpinned by non-renewing energy and material resources...
Any comparisons to exploding rockets on a take off platform are probably correct
That's giving it too much credit. It's more like a large fuel depot with a fuse.
Oh my fucking god AI needs to just fucking go away already, every time it's "collapse is coming, collapse is coming, collapse is coming" well fucking collapse already!
AI is needed mostly by people that can barely wipe their own ass without assistance and no i don't mean older people or handicapped people, i mean people that should be functioning human beings and not an embarrassment to our species.
