It's funny watching them rig the system and simultaneously keep shooting themselves in the dick.
Nvidia - desperate not to lose business as they're now ~93% dependent on AI sales, so they keep 'investing' in OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.. Who turn around and of course immediately buy Nvidia AI chipsets.
OpenAI and Anthropic - panicking that investors will realize their IP is worth nothing (what we've said all along) as they are overtaken by much cheaper models, so they lower their pricing drastically - can't risk losing that market share*.
*market share is irrelevant really, there is no first-to-market winner in AI, but you cant lie to idiots investors for another 16 rounds of funding to 2030 unless you can show userbase growth to them.
Really hard to keep propping up the con when barely anyone is paying.
Fingers crossed for horrible things to happen to then soon.
