Ed has a free newsletter today and it’s a cold look at the numbers. Glaringly, he talks about the AI labs’ coming debt raises is going to be tricky due to their lack of assets compared to the neoclouds that have valuable servers, racks and GPU’s even if they’re unable to finish the sites or fufill the massive power requirements (dark GPU’s anyone).

Is That All There Is to the Circus?

* Yes that is all there is — as diversification is dying

I know what you must be saying to yourselves
“If that’s the way she feels about it, why doesn’t she just end it all?”
Oh, no, not me
I’m not ready for that final disappointment

‘Cause I know, just as well as I’m standing here talking to you
And when that final moment comes, and I’m breathing my last breath
I’ll be saying to myself

“Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that’s all there is, my friends, then let’s keep dancing
Let’s break out the booze and have a ball
If that’s all there is”

– Peggy Lee, Is That All There Is?   Peggy Lee — Is That All There Is? 1969
