Just in today, a statement issued by leading names in AI, emphasizing the need to mitigate the risk of extinction from AI. The statement raises important questions about the responsibility of AI scientists and the role of governments in ensuring the safe development and deployment of AI technologies.
While it may seem logical to assume that AI scientists are best positioned to prevent AI from causing harm, the reality is more complex. AI scientists, despite their expertise, recognize the need for external oversight and regulation to address potential risks. They acknowledge that unchecked comp ..read more

Artificial intelligence (AI) dominates conversations, prompting thoughts on its impact, business models, and regulatory responses. However, uncertainty looms over the outcome of this technological revolution. Interestingly, investors find themselves in the same boat.
Recent surges in the stock prices of tech giants like Alphabet, Meta Platforms, and Microsoft indicate that investors are banking on the long-term potential of AI. Their hopes and perhaps a touch of faith fuel these investments. Yet, concrete evidence supporting such optimism remains scarce.
Alphabet, for instance, has witnessed ..read more

Last week, I saw this on the cover of The Economist. Covers like this are very often good contrarian indicators.
It is Wall Street’s worst kept secret that they are using the media to manipulate markets to enter and exit their stock positions. Our job is to sieve through the news and spot the bullshit. Jesse Stine, author of the book “Insider Buy Superstocks” also called out Goldman Sachs as the “best in the business” of market manipulation.

Wealth
/welTH/
noun: An abundance of valuable material possessions or resourcesMerriam-Webster Dictionary
What comes to mind when you think of wealth? A list of America’s ten richest people? Your neighbor with the bigger house, nicer car, and mountain home in Aspen? The multimillionaire CEO of your company? The professional athlete, musician, or movie star?
Sure, all of these people are, in a financial sense, “wealthy.”
But money doesn’t have a monopoly on wealth. Wealth is defined as “an abundance of valuable material possessions or resources,” but nowhere in this definition is mone ..read more

What a week for the banking industry. Earlier this week, Silvergate Capital ($SI) would be winding down operations and liquidating its underlying Silvergate Bank. That was an abrupt end for the firm which had been in business since the 1980s.
However, Silvergate ran aground after its business pivot into cryptocurrencies led it to a massive withdrawal of deposits last year. Silvergate was unable to effectively plug the hole in its balance sheet leading to the bank suspending operations and shareholders seeing a near total wipeout in value.
Silvergate was not a particu ..read more
