26:19Now PlayingJimmy reports that — surprise, suprise! — AI is proving far more expensive than the human workers it was supposed to replace, with token costs for running AI agents now exceeding employee salaries—exemplified by Microsoft banning its own engineers from using Claude Code after invoices became unsustainable, and Uber's CTO blowing his entire 2026 budget by April. He notes that Nvidia's own VP admitted that for his team, "the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees," and that Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft are spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure while discovering that the economics don't work.
Guest Garland Nixon observes that everything the ruling elite tells us produces the opposite result, and that companies like Microsoft don't actually bet their future because they know the government will bail them out, noting that Dodd-Frank baked bailouts directly into the system. Jimmy concludes that the whole AI narrative is "blowing up," that the scam was never about efficiency but about surveillance and control (via data centers, UBI, and CBDCs), and that PolyMarket gives a 22% chance of the AI bubble bursting by the end of the year.
