    I don’t think this really means anything for the actual AI bubble. Of course the chip makers are buying more chip-making machines now their orders have gone through the roof and they can ask 5x the price for the same damn chips.

    The usefulness of LLM’s hasn’t changed that much. They are still being massively overvalued and OpenAI still earned 30% less than what they were projected to earn.

    I just hope ASML is locking the chip makers tf into their contracts so they can’t cancel their orders when their self-blown bubble finally bursts.

      It is kind of strange, when you have a monopoly to build a machine, but only a hand full of customers that are buying them. Suddenly the monopoly isnt worth as much anymore.

        The monopoly is also being eaten away a bit by China. I haven’t seen any actual results of chips from their latest machines, but seeing what they accomplished with their other tech…. They have mastered the art of corporate espionage and reverse engineering.
