The AI Argument EP06: The AI Bubble, $100B Data Centers, and Amazon's Automation Illusion

Are we on the brink of a "dot AI bubble"? Justin argues that the rapid investment in AI companies, reminiscent of the dot-com era, is driving necessary technological advancement. However, Frank expresses concern about the focus on user acquisition over profitability, drawing comparisons to the unsustainable growth during the dot-com bubble.

Frank and Justin explore:

→ New York City chatbot giving illegal business advice
→ Microsoft and OpenAI's $100 billion "Project Stargate" data centre collaboration
→ Linux security breach through malicious code, potentially state-sponsored
→ Amazon's failed AI-powered stores actually relied on human workers

Whether you're a tech enthusiast, marketer, or business owner, this thought-provoking discussion will leave you with valuable insights and a clearer picture of the AI revolution's impact on the business world.
