Sort of? Google and YT (which was google soon enough) had something called a “business plan” where they grew after they got new business - enough to “justify” growth.
Also, it was easy to see how they could turn a profit and how the pricing would work, which made it like every other business in the world.
With open AI, they set a price based on “feels” and it’s far too low to pay for the computing costs. Then they offered it free to everyone. And they only burn money, there’s not enough money coming in to pay anyone.
Also the fact people in general who aren’t right wingers who would be fascinated by flashing lights absolutely hate AI and the way it’s being shoved into everything.
