58. They also make hardware in addition to software

Tue Dec 16, 2025, 01:10 PM

Tuesday

I can absolutely see the stock bubble bursting a bit, but I don't imagine companies like Nvidia will somehow collapse. Not all of their eggs are in a consumer software basket the way early Internet companies were.

And AI is absolutely here to stay. It encroaches on new aspects of technology, the economy, and life in general on the daily.

Three years ago, professors were complaining their students used AI.

Now they use AI to grade papers, create their syllabi, and . . . detect AI in student papers.

Three years. That's about how long protesting it lasted before blatant co-adoption started setting in.
