Because the most important thing for any pure play AI company right now is to prove they are a viable company. And sure they have proved they can make billions, but also that they can lose billions more. They are going to need even more money and to prove to the next round of investors at an even higher valuation that they are a viable business they need to show not that they can generate revenue, but that they can one day turn a healthy profit. And that is the trillion dollar question.

It is one of the most common procedures and is generally very safe. Even a botched procedure probably just means some temp discomfort after the procedure. Much better than the alternative.

I didn’t realize it was an Ive creation. The asthetics make more sense now. It just doesn’t really make sense as a Ferrari. Ferrari makes super cars and this is kind a a run of the mill ev under the hood.

The interior is very nice. The rest of Ferrari can hopefully borrow from this.


It looks like a BMW concept car honestly, like something I'd see at an auto show. Nothing reminds me of Ferrari.

At least they had the decency not to paint it red.

You can configure it in 3 different shades of red, including the traditional Rosso Scuderia.

It sounds like the interior is the Ive part.

It’s the outside I don’t like. I don’t hate it… just looks like it could be a Kia EV.

If you’re goofy enough to buy a Ferrari I expect you want people to really have to see that you’re driving a Ferrari.

Not a problem - because you'll also be wearing a Ferrari hat and jacket, just to make sure.


Nope, Ive's firm also designed the exterior.

Kia EV looks far better

by the time this depreciates the Kia might hold better value


The outside looks like one of the Mustangs from the 90s with the round brake lights. Meh

Absolutely.

Yeah, I think that if this was the fabled Apple Car most people would say it was quite nice. People are probably mostly hung up on it not really looking like a Ferrari.

I agree. It is quite nice. Just way too expensive. If this was a $100,000 Apple car people would be lining up to buy one.

This is a very strange car for Ferrari to make. What people expected is a Rimac and instead they get a fancy electric Prius.

Maybe it is really a functional prototype, but Ferrari as a company does strange things. They live off of their name brand, but they make buying and owning their cars a pain and frankly I don’t think they are very high quality compared to what other car makers in their price point are doing.


The book industry, despite its size, really doesn’t have large budgets on a per book basis. They release so many books and almost all of them lose money. Maybe 20 percent of published books break even and most of those just barely so.

My favorite was block chain. A company I used to work for that was not a tech company, suddenly going on about the block chain. I saw former, non technical colleagues that were still there write long authoritative LinkedIn posts about the advantages of the block chain and it was incredibly cringey because I am not sure what they thought the block chain was, but I am confident they didn’t understand it at all.

I have seen both. I have heard some talking on live television about how it is a bubble, but it isn’t popping yet, so keep investing. Everyone seems to just be trying to get theirs while the party is still happening.

You have to realize rich people can be stupid too.

VCs, PE and investors in general. Not all, but enough. Watch CNBC or Yahoo News for even 10 minutes—the sheer stupidity and mania around AI right now is frankly terrifying.

SpaceX won’t really be a public company in the traditional sense. Class A shareholders will have no real ownership of the company. If he wants to hard pivot to selling hamster balls no one can do anything about it.

The fact that the Nasdaq is expediting SpaceX and open AI inclusion just adds gasoline to the fire that is the bubble.
