That would almost instantly wipe out $4 Trillion. I'm pretty sure the government would step in and nationalize the company to prevent that from happening.
Unironically that would be a lot better choice than some typical non-technical beancounter they usually appoint these days. Most likely some companies are already experimenting heavily with that kind of robot overlord leadership behind the scenes. Regular C suite folks are easily replaced by AI after all, only the rare ones with genuine vision are safe (at least for now).
Lot of doom and gloom from the crowd that's been whining about AI being a real, beneficial investment and totally not a bubble for some time now. If AIs really that great and isn't a bubble, why so worried all of the sudden?
They're not on hold while talking to an AI. HP has some consumer protection heat in the EU for 15 minutes of hold time regardless of availability, also a US lawsuit of false advertising fir doing the same thing for 20 minutes. Tossing a delay obsessed AI in front of a customer is just as good (tireless upsales and perfectly cycling through nonapplicable TS&R steps).
Imagine how happy airlines will be once they get an AI perfectly tuned for matching the legal maximum customersupport delays for any kind of refund or point reimbursement.
Dehumanizing people with Even more RL Surveillance. The inevitably of it all being tied to red-light/jaywalking/speeding cameras. Advertising Even more invasive "you have 15 speeding fines, contact our legal firm now".

Even someone who is perfectly safe in their job, knows AI only leads to further enshittification and encroachment of enshittification of real life spaces.
This idol worship is embarrassing. Nvidia is fine. The AI industry is fine. If there is a bust it will be because of fundamentals, not this tech bro soap opera.
I feel like you're not really engaging with the article's thesis. Do you think that it's impossible in principle for the downfall of an idol to affect what kind of stories people in the industry can tell, or what kind of regulations are politically feasible?
If you asked me who the "face" of the AI boom was I would have said Altman. For better or worse. Huang is selling shovels to the miners.
Altman is a con-man if there ever was one. Same with Amodei.
I think they're both equally the face of america. Which is devoid of ethics, morals and is worshipped because they're rich and powerful.
Like that's not the case in the rest of the world? People there aren't judged by their wealth, influence and power?
But by the size of their d*cks or the number of women they've screwed? Or the children they kicked into this world without being able to support them?
Not sure about other countries but rich and powerful are despised in Australia. So still judged by their wealth but mostly in a negative way.
Isn't he also paying the miners to buy his shovels?
He's financing shovelers to buy his shovels. Which is fine if the shoveler does have a plot that yields
I feel like Nvidia has a chance to grab a real win here.
Announce that an AI agent running on Nvidias most expensive hardware is the new CEO.
{whoosh} Minds blown. :|

Bad news - agents are also known to cheat. ;-)
