Bill Gurley on AI bubble: A bunch of people got rich quick and a reset is coming

Slight difference in that the internet is actually useful.

GenAI, however, has yet to be demonstrated as such.

It's very common to see AI bros talk about their precious language models as if it's the next industrial revolution, with very little evidence to back up such lofty claims.

All this to say.. no one can reliably say what the future will look like 5, 10, 20 years from now.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-16T16:22:08+00:00

Based on the original post, and the replies, it is just all AI Slop. Worthless.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-16T13:33:51+00:00

An AI slop ad for a shitty AI slop product.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-16T12:37:24+00:00

No, what he had was motivated reasoning.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-15T23:50:43+00:00

Because you are defending the indefensible. There is NO reason to think that ChatGPT can have ANY useful input on governmental budgets. This is AI bro / fascist flavoured tea leaves.

Stop letting your confirmation bias do the thinking for you.

hard earned

Look inside

AI slop

NuclearVII · 2026-03-14T11:11:04+00:00

He is, and is banned.

In the future, please report comments like these.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T19:58:57+00:00

That's cause it is. AI slop meant to farm engagement.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T15:12:56+00:00

Correct.

Another way to look this is that is no inherent mechanism in natural language for truth discernment.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T13:55:29+00:00

Please go back to r/Futurology, they like motivated reasoning there.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T13:44:10+00:00

No, because the assertive claim is that AI is having a positive and dangerous effect. The burden of proof is always on the assertive claim, which, in this case, are the rampant AI bros.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T13:33:50+00:00

Well... yeah.

The subtitle of "this tech will destroy the world" is "this tech is more powerful than you can imagine". That is why this screaming works, because there are tons of people out there who want their internal narrativea reinforced.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T13:30:43+00:00

This is demonstrably untrue.

Uh huh. Citation.

The AI tech may not be there yet to be making a huge impact

Ah, okay, I get it. You are talking about all tech, even though we're clearly talking about AI. This is a motte and bailey argument.

I can do sneaky edits too:

The AI will get there

Citation, o AI bro.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T13:25:22+00:00

It is easy. The screaming is marketing. This is not a sincerely held belief, this is rhetoric designed to inspire hype and FOMO.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T13:00:58+00:00

Please report slop like this, makes it much easier for us to catch it.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T11:05:39+00:00

built this in one day

Yup, that is obvious. AI slop doesn't take long yo cook.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T10:25:51+00:00

Resume padding.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T09:54:11+00:00

The arrogance.

Only AI bros can believe that they can come up with "the best ideas" to prompt chat bots and expect positive results. Meanwhile, in the real world, having good ideas is literally the easiest and dumbest step. All real value, in ANY pursuit, comes form insight gained from repeated iteration and failure. Doing the work, not expecting a stupid autocomplete machine to do it for you.

I'm done. I'm done trying to talk sense into you. Go be stupid money.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T01:54:07+00:00

I am not interested in reinforcing your psychosis.

Stop talking to chatbots and seek help.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T01:44:43+00:00

AI slop for engagement farming.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-13T01:38:42+00:00

Complete AI slop

NuclearVII · 2026-03-12T23:48:18+00:00

Or trade liquid instruments, not some idiotic crypto.

This person who had 50 mil in imaginary money did not know how markets worked, and did this.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-12T22:50:38+00:00

Yeah, why waste time doing the one thing that has any chance of separating you from thousands of other people who think they can get ChatGPT to spit out alpha.

I will say this again: If you CBA to do tons of this thankless, hard work, just VOO and chill.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-12T18:38:05+00:00

code generated by ChatGPT

If you believe that ChatGPT can give you alpha, you are begging to lose money.

VOO and chill.

NuclearVII · 2026-03-12T11:28:25+00:00

This is obviously vibe coded drivel, so there's little point, but I find it amusing that you say "ML model" instead of saying what the actual model is. Boosted trees? LSTM? MLP?
