Well if they think AGI is soon with no evidence then that's not worth a whole lot

If they think AGI is soon AND they can back it up, why can't they convince investors and have them make up the difference for the next 2-3 years? Seems like a much better strategy than the pornbots and a weaker position with regulators

I mean if anything this makes it seem like they're not confident they'll get to AGI that soon.. they're not optimizing for that eventual outcome

Why does it have to be a dichotomy? Raise money from AGI-pilled investors with an AGI pitch. Raise more money from AGI-skeptics with a B2C growth story.

Moar money == moar GPUs.
