How Big Tech Became Too Big to Regulate and What It Means for Your Money

In Blade Runner, Eldon Tyrell does not spend much time worrying about governments. His corporation manufactures the artificial workers on which an entire off-world economy depends. Tyrell does not operate within the system so much as occupy one of the layers holding it together. We used to watch that and think: dystopian science fiction. We […]

Wall Street Is Starting to Split the AI Trade in Two

For most of the generative AI boom, Wall Street treated artificial intelligence less like a technology stack than a single enormous trade. Nvidia sold the GPUs. Hyperscalers built the data centers. Memory manufacturers supplied the components. Cloud companies rented the compute. Software developers added AI features. If a company could attach itself convincingly enough to […]

AI’s Biggest Safety Warning Just Became a Semiconductor Story

The artificial intelligence industry spent years convincing investors that the biggest constraint on AI was compute. On Monday, it introduced a much stranger possibility: what if the companies building the most advanced systems decide that they need less speed? That question hit the semiconductor market hard. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell 5.9% on September 14, […]

AI Safety Just Became a Market Variable.

AI Safety Just Became a Market Variable.

AI safety used to sit in a separate box from the AI investment thesis. One conversation was about alignment, misuse, regulation and existential risk. The other was about GPUs, cloud revenue, data centers and how many billions of dollars the hyperscalers could spend before somebody finally asked for a receipt. On September 14, those boxes […]

The AI Boom Is Quietly Reopening the Cloud Wars

Artificial intelligence was supposed to reinforce the cloud hierarchy. Instead, it may be starting to destabilize it. For years, the infrastructure market looked increasingly settled. Amazon Web Services established a huge early lead, Microsoft Azure turned enterprise relationships into cloud scale, and Google Cloud built a formidable third platform. Everyone else was fighting for considerably […]

The Building That Cannot Think Until Someone Gives It Power

A room full of GPUs sits in the dark. Not because the model failed. Not because the chips are late. Not because someone discovered a fatal flaw in the architecture. There is simply not enough power to switch the building on. For most of the AI boom, the industry has talked about compute as if […]

The Week Nvidia Delivered the Receipts and the Fed Raised the Difficulty

Last week, the market demanded receipts. This week, it got them. Nvidia delivered another absurd quarter, Bitcoin pushed through $80,000, CrowdStrike reminded Wall Street that AI can create software revenue as well as GPU bills, and the major US indices managed to finish higher. For about five minutes, everything looked beautifully simple. Then Kevin Warsh […]

Your AI Prompt Has a Capital Expenditure Problem

Your AI Prompt Has a Capital Expenditure Problem

You type a prompt. A few seconds later, an answer appears. From the user’s side, the transaction feels almost absurdly lightweight: a text box, a handful of tokens, perhaps a monthly subscription. There is no visible factory, no delivery truck and no machine humming on your desk. But generative AI is one of the most […]

AI’s Next Bottleneck May Be Public Permission, Not Computing Power

AI’s Next Bottleneck May Be Public Permission, Not Computing Power

AI companies have spent the past few years worrying about access to GPUs, electricity, capital and enough physical infrastructure to keep increasingly powerful models running. The next constraint may be harder to order from a supplier. It may be permission. Anthropic is reportedly preparing to identify negative public sentiment toward artificial intelligence and data centers […]
