This is such an eye-opening breakdown of what is actually happening behind the scenes with AI right now.

To a beginner, looking at big names like Alphabet or Intel can feel like trying to read a different language. But your piece points out a universal truth everyday investors need to hear: cash is king. It doesn’t matter how exciting or futuristic a technology like AI is—if a company is spending more money building it than they are actually bringing in, a reality check is inevitable.

For regular people trying to build long-term wealth, this is a perfect lesson in why we can't just get swept up in the hype. We have to look at the foundational math.

Thanks for the clarity.
