As someone who generally agrees with the thesis, I still find the length of the article quite frustrating, since it's definitely quantity over quality for text here. The core issue is that OpenAI is committing to spending hundreds of billions on AI data center expansion that it doesn't have and that it doesn't appear able to acquire, and this basic fact is being obscured by circular money flows and the finances of AI being extremely murky [1]. But Zitron is muddying this message by excessive details in trying to provide receipts, and burying all of it behind what seems to be a more general "AI doesn't work" argument that he seems to want to make but isn't sufficiently well-equipped to make. [1] The fact that the Oracle and Nvidia deals with OpenAI may actually be the same thing is the one thing new to me in this article.
