The AGI talk is shocking but not surprising to anyone looking at how bombastic Sam Altman's public statements are. The circular economy section really is shocking- OpenAI committing to buying $250 Billion of Azure services, while MSFT's stake is clarified as $132 Billion in OpenAI. Same circular nonsense as NVIDIA and OpenAI passing the same hundred billion back and forth. | ||||||||||||||

Dennis: I think we made every single one of our Paddy's Dollars back, buddy. Mac: You're damn right. Thus creating the self-sustaining economy we've been looking for. Dennis: That's right. Mac: How much fresh cash did we make? Dennis: Fresh cash! Uh, well, zero. Zero if you're talking about U.S. currency. People didn't really seem interested in spending any of that. Mac: That's okay. So, uh, when they run out of the booze, they'll come back in and they'll have to buy more Paddy's Dollars. Keepin' it moving. Dennis: Right. That is assuming, of course, that they will come back here and drink. Mac: They will! They will because we'll re-distribute these to the Shanties. Thus ensuring them coming back in, keeping the money moving. Dennis: Well, no, but if we just re-distribute these, people will continue to drink for free. Mac: Okay... Dennis: How does this work, Mac? Mac: The money keeps moving in a circle. Dennis: But we don't have any money. All we have is this. ... How does this work, dude!? Mac: I don't know. I thought you knew. | ||||||||||||||
