*PREVIEW* Backwash Economics feat. Ed Zitron

About this episode

Ed Zitron returns to discuss the disconnect between AI profitability and the economy.

Friend of the show Ed Zitron returns to discuss some of the recent developments in AI "profitability," or rather the fact that, while the economy doesn't hinge on AI in any meaningful way, the capital markets....have gotten themselves into a position where they do. And it's their own fault! Get more analysis from Ed here! Get the whole episode on Patreon here!
