Many of the hardware OEM's stocks are taking a beating.
What does that mean for us?
The economy is going to take a hell of a beating, the likes of 2008.
Every mom and dad invested heavily in AI related stocks. They knew not why, nor what they were getting financially involved in.
Well folks you are about to learn what the dollars they gave up represented, not much of anything besides a bunch of promises.

The good:
Expect hardware prices to briefly fall below before the AI gold rush.
OEMs will start dumping existing inventories in a desperate move to regain profitability.
Their enormous inventories that they we gambling AI would create a need far beyond the current amassed stockpiles that normally would be headed to the end consumer no longer has the projected need. They had planned charging huge premiums just to make these projects possible.

Greed is not good in the end.

They have memory and computers they cannot even sell, and yet they want you to believe we have a shortage.

It's called PRICE GOUGING, and they will sell this concept to get as many dunbasses to buy at these inflated prices as they can.

I guess they don't teach this in schools; if they did, these kids would not fall for these tactics.

The same Mini PC I purchased last year was $380.00 new, and now they want $750.00 for the exact same purchase, same manufactured date, 2025.

I see computers new and manufactured in 2012 with a price almost 3 times what it cost in 2012, so it sits in a warehouse all these years still considered new, and now they want you to think it cost them 3 times as much to make and sell it.

Yeah it's that bad. When the big boys come smooching Trumps rear end, they are praying for a bail out. Sorry folks, your tax money got smoked up in Iran and the results on energy prices. (Sorry my friends in the EU, I know you are suffering. No members of this board had anything to do with it.)
Good, I have been holding out on a new system. Maybe Santa will bring me a new one after all.


---> Last month, Trump ordered that “super intelligence” replace the term artificial intelligence <---

Looks like both terms are wrong. More like flushing money down the loo.

OOO a new system, One issue with this AI junk.

I went through my system last night and found a ton of stuff in my PC that all of a sudden is AI related. I didnt ask for it to be put there, I wasnt notified it was in there, same as my ASUS BIOS UPDATE, I dont particularly want AI in my system.

But it seems the Torrent file idea whilst it lasted was a way of using every computer in the owrld hooked up to the net to release its down cycles to the use of AI traffic. A lot like Berkley Univirsity SETI @ HOME from decades back and I was a part of it. O M G.

Stocks and shares work when you have ton of money to blow on promises, someone elses money usually , look at Monica Lewinski. Not all good things make it onto the market. I had one of those "Yes Mate its guaranteed to make a profit on Ivestment and followed closely by "Where did my money go again" .

AI always was a dead promise, like the inevitable "Silicon Dream" yes everyone has a computer these days, still lots dont know what the internet is or what its used for but having a supposed intelligence running round the world changing its mind every few milliseconds is super scary and some are even buried deep inside the stock markets.
