    The AI GPU is the only product that actually makes money, as in a positive value chain that is not subsidized by VC money and is able to exist without being subsidized by VC money?

    The point is, almost all of the AI growth and all of the profits have been AI GPUs. If I’m missing the point everyone else seems to as well, and when all your customers keep missing the point of your products, your business is not long for this world.

    My point is, which product, built by AI or built on AI is going to earn a trillion to pull OpenAI out of the hole and make AI keep existing after 2027?

      Whatsapp wasn’t profitable while it spread worldwide with little to no monetization. It killed the SMS, was bought for billions by Facebook (that wasn’t profitable either in the beginnings), and now it’s everywhere. There are lots of products following this path and AI is just going to be the biggest one in history, so far.

      AI is becoming ubiquitous, it’s being integrated in our way of working, it’s creating new professional figures and new possibilities, and it will kill a lot of stuff in the process. It’s simply false that everyone misses the point.

      It’s going to be a new industrial revolution, so the answer is more or less everything. There is that famous quote from the 70s when someone wondered who would want a computer at home. This is the same story and you will have AI at home at some point. Actually, you may be using one occasionally without even knowing.
