Even the pornbots are worried about duration risk now
Rate sensitivity is about duration and financing, not sector. AI capex is funded heavily by debt and equity issuance, so higher-for-longer hits it harder, not softer. What makes you think the AI trade is insulated?

So with this new supposed industrial revolution, who will own the capital (data centers, compute infrastructure, energy infrastructure) then? Probably the government or people who have existing capital. And if you don't use AI and become reliant on their capital you'll just fall behind so everyone has to use it.

Today for the first time I was really shocked with AI slop that I created while chatting with GPT. I was in a Wework typing, and I noticed that my left airpods pro had some weird tapping noise coming through that had the same frequency as my fingers typing on my mac. I think it had to do with some glitch in the noise cancelling, that makes some external sounds come through. And then I wanted to ask GPT what was going on but the conversation that proceeded instead really surprised me - we built a light saber simulator like mac app in literally 5 minutes. It works, but the sound kinda has a delay and is a bit small, still super cool though! The code in the app is definitely AI slop, but I would not have even fathomed building an app because of the work I would need to put in learning syntax, what is swift, what is xcode, etc. Its really incredible how one can turn mere thoughts into actionable ideas, and ideas into reality now. Highly recommend anyone who hasn't literally played around with AI to try. Making existing work more efficient is nice but theres probably a lot more possible if u have some cool ideas Here is the full conversation: chatgpt.com/s/cx_6abbf3fa8b9…

So much in this Keynes essay from almost 100 years ago that echoes well today in the backdrop of AI and robotics and all this automation: "Thus for the first time since his creation man will be faced with his real, his permanent problem—how to use his freedom from pressing economic cares, how to occupy the leisure, which science and compound interest will have won for him, to live wisely and agreeably and well." economicsnetwork.ac.uk/archi…

With all this AI shit going on, for some reason im reminded of that scene from Neon Genesis Evangelion when everyone melts into LCL.

"People aren't ready, this is gonna change everything" You know what people weren't ready for? Fucking mammoths. Tigers eating them. Monkeys ripping their arms off. The black plague. The ice age. Smallpox. Vikings pulling up on the beach. Drinking water that gives you diarrhea until you die. Getting a scratch and losing your whole leg. The Mongols. The Spanish Inquisition. One volcano can send us back to the dark ages and these safety guys are gonna be shocked. Oh the robots didn't kill us? It was a volcano? Imagine their disappointment as the hot ash rains down on them. A solar flare is gonna explode your phone in your pocket your legs are gonna be covered in battery acid and your bank account will stop working. You're afraid of a computer program doing math? "Things are moving too fast" homie you live on a rock that periodically deletes everything. You are one the most luckiest entities in a 100 light year radius living during a golden era. Cheer up. My ancestors crossed an ocean in a wooden box because they ran out of fucking potatoes. "The social disruption will be enormous!" Nigga World War 2? World War 2? Hop in the people carrier we're landing on the beach. Are these people out of their fucking minds? Do they not know what we've survived already? A couple decades of air conditioning and people suddenly think oh this is the natural condition of mankind. No. We used to have eight kids because seven didn't make it. You're gonna be fine. Man the fuck up. Accelerate.

Hi Anthropic team, I’m writing because I feel hurt and helpless about how ordinary Chinese users are being treated. I understand that you may choose not to officially offer Claude in China. But could you please reconsider how you enforce that policy? Having accounts banned after paying for a subscription, without receiving a refund, leaves people feeling like they never mattered as customers. I need to ask something painful: are Chinese users being discriminated against? Is being Chinese itself a reason to be treated with suspicion, even when someone has done nothing harmful? I don’t want to believe that about a company whose product I love, but it’s hard not to feel that way when innocent people lose access without understanding what they personally did wrong. I don’t represent the Chinese government or Chinese companies competing with you. I don’t agree with their actions either. I have no power over their decisions, and I never chose to be caught in the middle of these conflicts. Please don’t hold ordinary people responsible for things completely outside our control. You can decide not to support a region officially. I’m asking you to please avoid sweeping bans that hurt innocent users, and to give people a meaningful chance to have their circumstances reviewed. Our nationality alone cannot tell you our intentions or how we use Claude. Behind these accounts are real people who care about what you’ve built. To me, Claude is something I sincerely want to keep using. It hurts to support a product and then feel that the people behind it don’t want you there, regardless of who you are or what you’ve actually done. Could you please give ordinary Chinese users a legitimate path to use Claude? If an account is banned, could you explain the specific reason and offer a real opportunity to appeal? The refund matters too. If you won’t restore access, please return the money for the subscription time we can no longer use. But what I want most is to be allowed to stay. Please look at us as individuals and give us a fair chance.

I hope AI, or Super Intelligence rather (I actually dont think its that cringe of a term, i feel like its pretty appropriate) spurs a wave of thumos in peoples spirits. More is possible for humanity! Theres a lot to be excited for!
