Tech giants gamified burning millions of dollars on AI compute just to fake productivity. Here is a look at the absolute stupidity of the tokenmaxxing trend.
Microsoft is burning $100 billion to boil the planet and keep OpenAI running. The great AI grift continues as top-line revenue is just recycled Azure credits.
Jim Ryan bought Bungie for $3.6 billion and bailed. Now Sony is eating a massive impairment loss while pushing generative AI to distract angry investors.
Mark Zuckerberg tried to paste over his failing AI roadmap by buying a dime-a-dozen API wrapper for $2 billion. Then China completely vapourised the deal.
Microsoft is pushing desperate Copilot ads on Reddit while scrubbing the brand from Windows apps. Why is this enterprise AI legally an entertainment toy?
Anthropic accidentally leaked their Claude Code sourcemap and panicked with thousands of DMCA takedowns. Unpacking the hilarious hypocrisy of the "ethical" AI lab.
Satya Nadella has vapourised 1.4 trillion dollars of Microsoft's market cap. He is incinerating Azure profits on AI e-waste. Read the brutal truth behind the stock crash.
OpenAI shutting down the Sora app is absolutely no surprise. Between an insane $200 paywall and a delusional AI TikTok clone, it was always a spectacularly clueless waste of energy.
The Pentagon just accidentally popped the generative AI bubble. While clueless users boycott OpenAI for Anthropic, both are walking into a financial death trap.
Clueless governments just blew $30 billion on Nvidia GPUs they have absolutely no idea how to use. Sovereign AI hype is a colossal grift that is actively destroying the consumer hardware market and wasting tax payer's money.
Microsoft is facing massive global antitrust raids, daily EU fines under the DMA, and a £2.1 billion UK lawsuit over cloud tying and Copilot bundling.
Nvidia is finally walking back that ridiculous $100 billion OpenAI investment. It was always a transparent attempt to pump the stock, but now the reality of the AI bubble has hit. Jensen Huang knows better than to throw cash into a money pit, yet the other tech giants are still blindly doubling down on the hype.
Leaked emails reveal Bank of America bought massive amounts of Nvidia AI hardware with zero plan on how to use it. Lets look at the "Formula 1" fiasco and the funny reality of corporate AI shelfware.
xAI faces an EPA lawsuit for illegal smog and global bans for Grok deepfakes. Inside Musk's $1bn/month disaster that's poisoning locals and burning investor cash.
I (100% organic human), take a look at the peak of 2025's SOTA LLMs writing capabilities.
Remember "Claude Explains"? Anthropic's pretentious attempt to make their LLM a blogger lasted less than a week. Lets look at how they nuked the project the same week Reddit sued them for aggressive scraping.
The news that Meta is planning to buy Google’s AI chips is the signal that the NVIDIA infinite growth narrative is dead. Here is the breakdown of why the whales like OpenAI and Meta are ditching Nvidia for Google TPUs and custom silicon, and why the AI bubble is about to leave Larry Ellison holding the bag in 2026 - 2027.
Nvidia's latest earnings report has sparked a dishonest new narrative: that the AI bubble fears were unfounded. This ignores the reality of how enterprise hardware buying actually works. We are looking at a receipt for panic-buying that happened in late 2024, not proof of sustainable demand today. The numbers are massive, but they are fueled by a closed loop of cloud credits and vendor financing, not organic profit.
Amazon's massive layoffs hit its gaming division, ending the failed MMO New World. Lets unpack the corporate genius of firing your team to 'focus on AI', starting with Jeff Bezos's hilariously aged victory tweet.
The blueprint for securing a $96.5 million paycheck at Microsoft in 2025 seems simple enough. First, you hike prices on key services like Microsoft 365. Then, you fire over 15,000 employees in waves throughout the year. Finally, you take money from the Israeli military for AI contracts. Satya Nadella’s record compensation proves that this cynical playbook delivers exactly the results the board wants to see.
