CNBC's Carl Quintanilla quoted an industry figure: "At the moment, we have more compute capacity than we have demand, and a lot of the tokens and processing power are being given away in freemium solutions. Everyone in the AI race is running for a last-man-standing position."
A bull-side trader reshared it, mocking the bear camp: "If the best the bears can do is a boomer Gartner analyst and Zitron, I am going to retire so rich." The AI bubble bull-vs-bear fight keeps escalating.
