or wait to progress ai until we have a court case over if training data on others use is legal or not.

be a shame if they spent all this on ai then courts rule in favor of the people and the training they did has to be scrapped.

So where is the pot of gold at the end of this rainbow?
Maybe they will make AI fast enough to crack encryption and loot? There would be money in that. More monitoring and better targeted ads? I don't think there is enough money left on the table there to pay for all of this. Is it just riding a hype wave to boost equity values? That could be worth it in the short term but is really just a waste of resources.

Maybe somebody else has something better.
