The Vergecast’s latest episode turns from the US midterm results to a harder question for the AI boom: is enough money coming back to justify the sums going in? The episode description says businesses are scaling back and agents do not appear to be taking over, while pointing to the difficulty of making money from AI web search.
Why it mattersThat is a useful counterweight to the grand promises: growth is one thing, a business model is another. The Vergecast frames these as questions for discussion, not settled findings.
Discuss: Which should matter more when judging the AI boom: the technology’s potential, or evidence that it can pay its way?
