- Steve Moraco predicts autonomous agents will discover forms of inference, training, and continuous learning that are 1,000,000x cheaper and faster, running equivalent models on old hardware.
- He argues people will panic-sell Nvidia stock while Apple surges, the economy won't collapse, but data centers will be embarrassing once we realize we should have built robot factories instead.
- The take is framed as a reply to Matt Zeitlin's claim that Trump believes the economy will collapse without a rapid AI buildout.
