The walls are closing in and the president is gleefully lighting fires he has no intention of putting out. There's a reason they're rushing like mad to an IPO, but as we saw with OpenAI it's easier said than done when your business model is "Lose tons of money to eventually maybe dominate a market with the moat we don't have, but trust us AI is huge give us trillions."
