    The trouble with the railways comparison is that after investing tons of cash the railways were built. With AI the GPUs have no value after 6 years (if that). So the investment must continue forever. It’s madness.

      The other trouble with the railways comparison is that trains actually work and can generate a profit for their owners.

    Railways? Good example of tech abandoned in favor of something else.

      Huh? Rail handles about 40% of long distance freight in the US.

    What’s the original link? The archive won’t load for me.

    Edit: I got hit with a captcha that wouldn’t load in DDG mobile. I opened it on a desktop and I have it now.
