Democracy in the US is under serious threat by a deranged orange comestible, but you wouldn't see any signs of that from watching the absolutely delusional stock market, which seems to only care about AI stocks continuing to lift the entire market thanks to their outsized value in it and all the wealth tied up in some fairly shaky but critical assumptions. In other news, Financial Times reports just now that Oracle's market value jumped $200B thanks to a surge in AI investment, taking Larry Ellison's worth to that of Elon Musk.

@briankrebs The screenshot is from a JP Morgan article released last week where it discusses how Capital Expenditure towards AI is fully 35-45% of the entire US economy GDP for the past 3 fiscal quarters.We are fully in a recession/depression except for one industry that is a statistical outlier of fanatics with more wealth than brains dumping into a dead end technology stack at the expense of basically everything else.Our economy is kept afloat by a Spider Georg outlier industry.

Clearly, Wall Street is partying hard. Caught this via Stephen Colbert's show two nights ago (we usually watch them a day later): Cocaine levels in Nantucket sewage 50 percent above US average, health data reveals. "This wastewater initiative, which builds on infrastructure developed during the COVID-19 pandemic, tests for cocaine, methamphetamine, nicotine, fentanyl, codeine, dihydrocodeine, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, morphine, oxycodone, oxymorphone, and tramadol.""Cocaine levels in the sewage during the testing period were above both the national and regional average, topping more than 1,500 nanograms of substance per liter at points, the data showed."https://www.boston25news.com/news/local/cocaine-levels-nantucket-sewage-50-above-us-average-health-data-reveals/P4QHYTYWUBDG5M23R2OXZUGZWY/

@briankrebs Larry Ellison is anti-democracy personified. Here's hoping that his CIA fantasies about AI-enabled surveillance platforms ends soon. Despite the best efforts of his fossil fuel fascist investors, AI remains a product no one wants.https://www.businessinsider.com/the-cia-made-larry-ellison-a-billionaire-2014-9https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/05/20/larry-ellison-oracle-trump-election-challenges/https://www.sfchronicle.com/tech/article/project-2025-oracle-19654875.phphttps://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2024/09/omnipresent-ai-cameras-will-ensure-good-behavior-says-larry-ellison/https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2022/05/larry-ellison-chips-in-a-cool-billion-towards-musks-twitter-takeover/https://gigazine.net/gsc_news/en/20240917-oracle-larry-ellison-said-ai-will-track-youhttps://techcrunch.com/2025/01/13/the-cias-first-cto-nand-mulchandani-prepares-for-the-trump-administration/https://www.intelligentcio.com/me/2023/12/15/oracle-will-train-50000-saudi-nationals-in-artificial-intelligence-and-other-latest-digital-technologies/https://www.nextgov.com/digital-government/2014/09/oracle-the-cia-and-governments-role-in-picking-winners/240320/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/technology/tech-news/from-building-database-for-cia-to-becoming-ai-industrys-backbone-oracles-businesses-decoded-as-founder-larry-ellison-adds-100-billion-to-net-worth-in-one-single-day/articleshow/123814451.cms
