We've officially entered a new era

🚨 DOT-COM 2.0 IS ALREADY HERE
What I warned you about is happening.
The AI Bubble collapse has officially begun.
TRILLIONS wiped out in a single session.
We’ve NEVER seen tech destruction of this speed and scale.
Nasdaq100 -4%, S&P500 -2.2%.
Intel is down 30% TODAY, the worst single day in the company’s entire history.
Dozens of AI and tech names are already in full bear market territory:
CRWV -60%, ORCL -51%, ARM -55%, APP -68%, GOOGL -31%, META -21%.
AI is no longer a growth story.
It’s a cash-burning machine that is destroying traditional internet business models in real time.
Reddit CEO just admitted it out loud: “AI mode does not drive traffic.”
Google already lost half a trillion. Amazon is burning cash.
The chain reaction is accelerating.
Liquidity is disappearing.
Forced liquidations are starting to appear.
This is not a normal correction.
This is what the beginning of a true AI bubble deflation looks like.
Remember, I warned you about the coming AI collapse for months.
The next call will matter even more.
When the bubble finally pops and the real bottom forms, I’ll post the level worth buying here like I always do.
Stay close.

6 months. Nick Bostrom is possibly the most unknown expert on superintelligence. In fact, he popularized the risk and the term in his 2014 book, Superintelligence.
As an Oxford professor, he has always been understated p-doom percentages and timelines, but he says now it could arrive even in 6 months.
That's something that should put us all in emergency mode and act on those timelines.
Nick Bostrom says Superintelligence could arrive in 6 months, and that it poses an existential risk 😱
"It's really the last invention we will ever need to make... but there are also significant risks including existential risks."
"I think we have to take even short timelines seriously, like, you know, could happen in 6 months, a year or two."

The AI bubble is starting to pop globally.
First, China suffered a massive AI stock crash, with nearly ¥23.5 Trillion wiped out from its stock market since its 2026 peak.
• STAR50 crashed 40% in less than four months.
• Unitree plunged nearly 50%.
• Zhongji Innolight and Eoptolink collapsed around 60%.
Now, Wall Street is showing similar signs.
Yesterday, major AI related stocks crashed 15%-20% in a single day, while the Nasdaq plunged 3.46%, wiping out almost $1.5 Trillion.
But the damage is no longer limited to publicly traded stocks.
• Anthropic could receive a JUNK credit rating even after its planned IPO, making it more expensive to finance its proposed $800 Billion AI infrastructure expansion.
• OpenAI has cut its funding target by $10 Billion to $20 Billion, while lowering its proposed valuation from $1.4 Trillion to $1.25 Trillion.
Also, House Democrats have introduced a resolution opposing taxpayer bailouts for failed AI companies.
Usually such signs emerge when investors think there's more risk to the downside, and AI hype is showing the same signs.

Yoshua Bengio is the most cited living scientist. In any field.
When he shows regret about his life's work, it's worth hearing why.
Yoshua Bengio on helping create AI, then realising his children might not have a life 20 years from now.

It's crazy how Claude (and all other LLMs) are built on the biggest IP theft of all human history, and now they get picky about copyright
ANTHROPIC IS CRACKING DOWN ON VIDEO GAME REWRITES 🚨
Claude Code picked up a new rule around Oct 27, sent from Anthropic’s servers under a flag called "tengu_heron_brook". There’s no setting to turn it off.
The full rule: “Do build original games, games in a genre, and games from the user’s own designs and assets. Don’t build a recreation of a specific existing game, even if it is renamed or called original.”
Is this the end of game rewrites, modding and everything in between?

Proud of our volunteers in Boise who organized Idaho's first AI Safety protest last weekend! PauseAI NOW!
The world is listening, and our government is listening to our concerns about the dangers of AI. Anyone can help, and if you want to help, join us this December as we go to meet with our elected representatives in your home district!
We will train you, book your meetings, and connect you with other local volunteers. Apply for PauseCon Home here: pauseai-us.org/pausecon
The AI companies are "wargaming scenarios for the aftermath of a catastrophic event." We need to PauseAI NOW! Before any catastrophe. Pause saves lives.
Join us in Boise, October 24th at 11am, for Idaho's first AI Safety protest. Organized by our amazing Local Group Leaders.

This is INSANE. Cisco’s president Jeetu Patel has given a 27-year-old engineer unlimited AI tokens to try to rewrite 98% of the company’s legacy code within 24 months, Fortune reports.
Padmanabhan Krishnamurthy thinks he can do it with a two-person team. He has just four weeks to prove the approach.

Less than a month ago, OpenAI was looking to raise “at least” $30 billion at a valuation of $1.4 trillion.
Today it raised $11 billion at $1.25 trillion valuation and faced “tepid” interest.
OpenAI has raised less than half of the $30 billion it had initially targeted for its latest funding round on.wsj.com/4zqPW7W

AI executives have spent big on Trump. Now their AI is hacking websites, including a government health database. If Trump’s DOJ looks the other way, that’s corruption, plain and simple.

This is fucking disgusting and a crime against humanity.
This company is growing real human neurons to use for computing. We don't know how consciousness works! It's bad enough that we don't know what to think of brain-like LLMs. This company says fuck it, remove all doubt, make the computer out of human parts!
If you don't think the neurons they are using now are conscious, do you think this is where it ends? No! Obviously not. Obviously if they can get more performance out of something more brain-like they will. We cannot allow them to use literal human brains as computer products.
And they know they're doing something horrible. They chose to name their product "mischief" and launch with a "happy halloween" nod. The AI companies are attacking our society in places where we don't have laws yet. Our government needs to react fast.
today, we introduce a little mischief to the world.
for four years, we’ve been brewing real brain cells on electrodes to understand how they compute. now, we’ve turned those discoveries into a video model anyone can use.
from 0.5¢ a second, mischief 1 is at least 5x faster than its base and the cheapest image-to-video model on @fal and @OpenRouter. soon to be on @awscloud marketplace.
it’s not a delusion anymore. biocompute is real, commercial and this is just the beginning.
happy halloween.

🚨 The AI BUBBLE is starting to look like a MUCH bigger problem than overpriced tech stocks
More than $2 TRILLION was on track to be wiped off the Nasdaq 100 in October, and now Wall Street is getting nervous about something far more dangerous: DEBT.
Blackstone expects Anthropic to receive a JUNK credit rating after its IPO, according to the FT, even as the company plans more than $800 BILLION in computing investments through 2045.
Amazon is burning through cash. Alphabet just lost roughly $500 billion in market value in ONE DAY. And CoreWeave's borrowing costs have reached levels that would make most companies sweat.
Here's where things get crazy.
AI companies are borrowing BILLIONS to buy chips from suppliers who are increasingly helping finance the very customers buying those chips.
That's a LOT of money moving around the same circle.
And the entire industry is just betting that future AI revenues will eventually justify the enormous costs of building all this infrastructure.
Nobody is even questioning whether AI is actually useful.
They're rather questioning whether the spent TRILLIONS to build it will ever make returns.
And if the debt markets lose confidence before those profits arrive, this could get ugly VERY quickly.

Wall Street is obliterating BIG TECH, with Intel plunging nearly 30% and AMD losing more than 11%.
And the rest of the market? Surprisingly calm.
Nvidia is down 4.32%, Broadcom 5.63%, while Microsoft and Amazon are also in the red.
But ENERGY, UTILITIES, REAL ESTATE and parts of healthcare are actually gaining.
Money isn't fleeing the entire stock market. The selling is concentrated in technology, with chipmakers taking the worst hits.
That's what makes this selloff so interesting.
The companies that helped drive Wall Street's AI boom are now taking some of its biggest losses, while investors find opportunities elsewhere.

Many data centers will have to cease operations, and most of those currently planned will never be built. This can only be good news for the planet.

CZ also mentions Binance’s SpaceX, $SPCX, position which is worth over $1 billion.
