There are fresh signs that the AI boom is wobbling. Again. In recent weeks, a much-vaunted AI focused hedge fund run by Valley wunderkind Leopold Aschenbrenner lost $35 billion dollars. South Korea saw its largest-ever stock market collapse as investors pulled bets on AI chips.

It wasn’t that bad, maybe half a second delay of the video behind the audio, at least when I was watching it on my phone through the browser. Juuuust enough delay to trigger my brain to feel very uncomfortable.
I agree it’s a pain to watch when it happens, and it can reduce the ability to focus a lot IMO.
Definitely, that’s why I just sat my phone to the side and listened to it while I did dishes.
