    Wasting?

    A bunch of rich guy’s money going to other people, enriching some of the recipients, in hopes of making the rich guy even richer? And the point of AI is to eliminate jobs that cost rich people money?

    I’m all for more foolish AI failed investments.

      It’s a circle jerk, don’t get fooled into thinking this is some new version of trickle down economics

        It’s not trickle down at all. Definitely not what I was trying to say. Just rich people trading money among themselves in hopes of getting richer.

      Imo it’s wasted in the sense that the money could have gone towards much better uses.

      Which is not unique to AI, it’s just about the level of money involved.
