Rising unemployment seems to be an issue.

Is now the time to go all in on NVDA and the tech darlings? AI, right?
What do the OpenAI folks say?

"OpenAI's Noam Brown says that while AI model performance scales roughly equivalently with more training or inference compute, the cost of inference is on the order of 100 billion times cheaper."

Huh...how bout that?

I doubt all this stuff means nothing. It will be fine. Just fine.
