"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Ed does a huge amount of research creating reverse engineered financials for companies that are doing their best to hide it. As another poster said, he brings the receipts. That's his main game. Its why you read him in the first place. He backs it up.
What does he have? I'll bet its inside financial data. I think he got a cache of straight info that lets him correct many of his estimates and prove his worst predictions.
Didn't OpenAI just submit confidential documents for their IPO? My bet is his source got eyes on it and the information within is damning.
