  Nobody is. Every major AI company is losing money.

        I think the underlying message is making/serving AI isn’t a mythical goldmine: it’s becoming a dirt cheap commodity, and a tool for companies to use.

        You don’t demand a source for the claim that AI companies are losing money. Why should I waste my time going through quarterly statements when the original commenter doesn’t seem to care to?

      One of the reasons I recommend Zitron is because he links all his sources in his show notes (well, links sources in a doc linked in his show notes).

    What’s the podcast called? ‘Zitron’ didn’t bring anything up on the Podcast Republic app.
