@GaryMarcus You might say it's tiresome that this is how markets work, but it's naive to be *surprised* that this is how they work. Nor is it entirely irrational: the only way to make a fortune is to make an exuberant bet on X long before it's clear to rational thinkers that X will succeed.

So weird the way the market is punishing Zuck for being realistic about the challenges in AI while rewarding Elon and Sam for making lavish promises they are unlikely to be able to keep.

Especially when they are all working on essentially the same kind of tech.

The statement '@CarlPham9000 you realize these are opposite bets on the same tech, right?' is part of a broader conversation about market reactions to different approaches in AI technology development. The statement is a response to a comment on how markets operate, which itself is a response to a critique of market behavior towards tech leaders' promises versus realistic assessments. This conversation engages with public discourse by discussing the implications of market behavior on technology development and public perception.
