Peter Schiff Declares AI Stock Boom Over as SpaceX SPCX Slumps

Economist Peter Schiff argues the AI stock bubble has likely burst as SpaceX (SPCX) slides, trading around $120 after a drop of over 46% from its high and about 11% below its IPO price; Schiff says AI itself isn’t a bubble, but AI stocks are, blaming intensified Chinese competition (Moonshot AI’s K3) for the fade, and noting SpaceX’s chart looks weak even as other bears question SpaceX’s high valuation.

OpenAI Bubble Could Trigger the AI Market's Lehman Moment, Says Ed Zitron

AI skeptic Ed Zitron argues the hype around artificial intelligence is a universe centered on OpenAI; if OpenAI falters, it could induce a Lehman-style crash in AI markets as investors lose confidence and funding for AI startups dries up. He points to OpenAI’s finances as turbulent, notes how infrastructure payments and rising costs could slow growth, and suggests the AI surge could pivot to a new era if the OpenAI-driven frenzy collapses.

OpenAI Bubble: Hyperscalers, Memory, and the Debt-Driven AI Mania

Opinion piece arguing OpenAI sits at the center of a speculative AI bubble fueled by hyperscalers and massive, debt-financed compute and memory investments built on hype rather than proven ROI. It contends many deals are inflated, media narratives push stock prices, RAM prices spike due to a memory oligopoly, and retail investors are harmed as the market’s psychology fuels unsustainable growth—risks that could collapse the wider tech and financial systems. It also highlights risks to SoftBank, Oracle, and others tied to OpenAI’s fate, urging tougher scrutiny of the AI hype cycle.

Public Wary of AI Bubble as Spending Outpaces Returns

Americans are increasingly uneasy about the AI boom, with a Haystack News poll showing 55% very concerned about an AI bubble and 14.5% somewhat concerned, as more than $1 trillion has been invested with unclear returns. A broad market sell-off erased nearly $1 trillion in value in AI-heavy stocks like Amazon, Nvidia, Tesla, Alphabet, and Intel, while SpaceX briefly dipped below its IPO price. Analysts warn the gap between funding and actual ROI could trigger broader economic fallout if the trend continues.

LeCun Declares xAI a Failure and Warns of an AI Funding Bubble

Yann LeCun branded Elon Musk’s xAI a ‘failure’ and said it won’t outpace OpenAI or Anthropic, while warning that AI labs face a looming “bubble explosion” unless costs are cut or prices rise. He pointed to AMI Labs’ $1 billion funding for world models as an alternative approach and noted xAI’s infrastructure is largely leased to others, suggesting Musk’s company may struggle to recoup costs. The broader industry is under pressure as AI services grow costlier to run and several players reportedly lose money, underscoring a push for sustainable economics even as proponents advocate world-model research.

Burry Warns AI Euphoria Could Crumble Into a Prolonged Downturn

Michael Burry argues in a Substack debate that the AI boom is unsustainable, warning that trillions spent by hyperscalers on chips and data centers will yield few durable gains and that AI could become commoditized; he uses Buffett's Hochschild-Kohn escalator tale to illustrate wasteful spending, singles out Nvidia and Palantir as overvalued poster children, notes Alphabet's slipping lead, and predicts a long downturn with weaker tech demand and employment.
