This would have made the photoshoot even more interesting than it probably was.

The stock market?

(for now…)

Rational me agrees with you. But I’m worried that too large a portion of the globe’s growth is coming from AI right now. I feel like they will try to string this out for as long as possible.

GPUs and RAM are global commodities, like oil. China might bring prices down a bit in the short term by adding supply, but ultimately all will be bought up by the highest bidders, who currently seem to have insatiable demand, unlimited funding, and are hell-bent on wrecking the consumer market.

The data is all still there. They were using a subcontractor (who went under) that stored the data at Iron Mountain. Since the subcontractor was the customer and not PBS, PBS needs a judge to declare that they own the data so they can retrieve it from Iron Mountain.

Still, 3,2,1, folks.
