Former Goldman Sachs ($GS) CEO Lloyd Blankfein’s expresses a skeptical view on the unlimited appetite for AI exposure:
Risk management 101—every exposure should have a limit, even when you’re sure nothing could go wrong. After all, the Titanic sank and AAA mortgage bonds went to zero. I worry about the market’s (and the economy’s) unlimited appetite for exposure to the positive AI revenue story.
