You know how a gambler who loses it all starts begging his family for cash or putting their house up for a loan?

Over the past few weeks, several US banks have pulled off from lending to Oracle for expanding its AI data centres, as per a report. So Oracle is now firing 30000 engineers as banks pull out from financing AI data centres and OpenAI deals to meet fools dream. Wise investors are pulling out of data centres now as they found out it's impossible to reach AGI & exponential AI growth through increasing the scale of compute. LLMs have already hit their developmental plateau https://www.livemint.com/companies/news/oracle-layoffs-tech-giant-to-slash-30-000-jobs-as-banks-pull-out-from-financing-ai-data-centres-11769996619410.html

@nixCraft don't know either, but that would precipitate the process xD

Feel bad for the folks that were working there, but also, fuck Oracle.

@keyboardg @nixCraft @nivrig wow 30k that is going to
Be noticed. I haven't seen numbers like that since 2008, Cisco had some layoff in that range. -
@nixCraft on one hand it makes me very happy to see the AI bubble burst, but it's incredibly sad to see that workers are the ones to suffer again

@nixCraft the only good AI that will stick around will be Gemini the rest will crumble.

Oracle firing 30,000 employees because banks refuse to finance its AI expansion?
LOL. Like any large corporation, it will take any step that allows it to avoid admitting that its own management makes supremely bad decisions.

@lexinova interesting, What's the difference between the metaphor of a bubble bursting Vs a dramatic market correction?

You know how a gambler who loses it all starts begging his family for cash or putting their house up for a loan? We all know that story usually has a "happy" ending. Right?
Well, SoftBank is basically doing the same thing. They are talking to banks to get a massive $40 billion loan just to buy a stake in OpenAI. It is their biggest loan ever. I’m sure betting the house on a single hand will work out perfectly this time. https://www.livemint.com/companies/news/softbank-seeks-record-40-billion-loan-financing-banks-fund-openai-stake-invest-masayoshi-son-ai-bubble-concern-liquidity-11772773618772.html
These AI people are running out of money
Given the money is going around and around between different AI companies (or not, it's sometimes just promises to do so) then I'm sure someone will lend SoftBank the money.
Maybe Nvidia?

Ellison is buing media companies now.
The 30K employees who build his software empire are just meat. -

@nixCraft Is the madness finally comming to an end? How I’ve been longing to this day.
I hope those 30k engineers can now find something with meaning and purpose to put their cognition and skill into. Preferably something related to saving the planet from impending doom. That, or cool video games.
Also, should we be warning the genetics and/or robotics folk that tech bros are coming for them next?
️, and the fascists need the Ellisons for their propaganda
