More AI Hype – The Latest Clickbait Phenomenon

More AI Hype – The Latest Clickbait Phenomenon

The chatter that AI is going to save the U.S. from falling into recession (I believe we are already there), is delusional. I would short that thesis all day.

There simply is not enough Enterprise Customer demand for AI / advanced automation products and services to warrant the sharp acceleration in equity valuations for certain “AI” companies.

  • Nvidia (NVDA) is one such company.
  • C3.ai (AI) is another (AI shares are off today post-EPS call, but remain up approx. 214% YTD).
  • Snowflake (SNOW) is a third.
  • This level of AI hype reminds me of the Internet Bubble, circa 1999.
