This probably isn't true. What's more likely to be true is that it's hard to be overweight when your dying from cancer or whatever.

Everyone in the industry losing their shirts and going out of business is a crisis. It happened 15 years ago in the US and we still haven't made it back to mid 90s level of housing starts.

I don't think it matters much to Nvidia so long as they're the market leader. If AI gets cheaper to compute it just changes who buys. Goes from hyperscalers to there being an AI chip in every phone, tablet, laptop, etc. still l
