This is clearly a sign that the product failed to draw in enough customers and its viability was overhyped.

Hopefully, it is the start of the AI bubble bursting.

I absolutely can't wait for more of this shit to start collapsing financially.

Maybe time to move retirement accounts into cash.

Cash will lose value just exactly as the money in your account.

Move it to precious metals or assets that historically average flatter value through crashes. The dollar is highly volatile in economic crisis.

I'd do this but its probably the wrong move. I tend to go with the steam method: do nothing while everyone else scrambles, profit.

Or invest in non-US to keep them safe. Like Norwegian funds while the orange is oranging to gain on the oil price boom, and then spread out to European and emerging markets when he has his first public stroke in a few months.

Sora 2 was massive lost leader for OpenAI, and a massive basis for its compute demand. Images and video use expensive compute time, and its ambition level was high before Seadance 2, and small open models. With its falling behind in coding/office LLMs as well, only Skynet/Government can pay for its roadmap.

RIP Sgt General Jessica Foster. Semper fudge.
