Except AI has a limited but valid use case, where FTX was straight up a scam. Will get back to you if (and that's a big if) they discover a way to do AGI.

I do agree though. It isn't far off from from what SBF did. All this money circlejerk has a limited run. I've stopped investing past couple of months. Will see if I lose or win.
