“Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning”
~ Winston Churchill 1942

Evidence that AI is accelerating our economy!

The phrase "the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent" is no longer true, because of the incredible rate at which this nonsense is burning money.
