According to Ed Zitron, AWS cost about $52 billion between 2003 and 2017 (adjusted for inflation), and became profitable after that. OpenAI did 13 funding rounds at a total of $180 billion and the signs are that they are burning through that capital at an accelerated pace and nowhere near profitable. The scale isn't quite the same

I mean I guess but that sounds like just defining all toys as trash to me
Awesome :)
To some extent I agree, however I do have some examples with staying power:
- bath toys, like boats and stuff
- video games props, like pokeballs, Pokédex, ocarina flute, majoras mask prop, wind waker wand
For the latter, it was a father-son project to sand and paint them, so that probably has to do with it. For bath time, it's probably because the selection is more limited in the first place.
