  • Will IBM Save the Confidence In AI?

    I think that the recent pullback in the stock is a hedge against AI not having a financial impact yet as neither Tesla nor Alphabet has increased their business using AI yet (each for its reason: Tesla is a fraud, and Alphabet just has not harvested the fruits yet).
