Now that capital has integrated them into their system they will not be allowed to fail. At least for now.

Nah but for real how much life can this bubble still have left?A lot, because nothing ever happens.
There are decades where nothing ever happens, and there are weeks where we are so back
Almost like quantitative changes turn into qualitative changes or something
They rupture even
Or Microsoft and Meta will make sure there's less competition in the future for their own LLMs?
It seems like MS could really fuck them up if they stopped using OpenAI for all their azure stuff. As of now I don't think MS relies on their own LLM for anything?
MS abandons basically anything new that doesn't make them even more absurdly rich instantly these days.
Game pass and Xbox aren't profitable but maybe they're trying to change that now.
Yea but Xbox division is like 2 decades old so they're probably afraid of shit canning the whole thing. It is likely that Spencer goes down with the ship though after failing to achieve anything beyond securing Xbox's position in third place so firmly and distantly that the only remaining option is Microsoft just buying Sony completely to get the market the hard way. They'll wait until Kamala replaces Lena Kahn at the FTC first though.
They are choosing to create as many layers of separation as possible. While integrating the systems directly. This is just how global capital is currently ran.
