How the AI bubble bursts | Volpe’s Blog
"We’re hitting the worst-case scenarios for the big AI labs: energy, their biggest expense, is at multi-year highs, capital from the Gulf is not available for obvious reasons, there are serious concerns about a rate hike, and RAM prices are crashing because new models won’t need as much, but labs already bought them at sky-high prices."

"In this essay, Carson Gross discusses his advice to young people interested in computer science worried about the future given the advancements in AI."
Reports of code's death are greatly exaggerated
"AI helps you with this, because it – increasingly instantly and well – turns English into running code. You can then react to it – "move the button there; make it bluer" – to get incrementally more precise about what you want."
