The most overvalued market is the tech market. The value of all of those cards and circuits are maintained purely through the existence of key monopolies in their production. It's also the one generation the most unrecycable shit, at least not without consequences to the environment. And now they want to build AI data centers so we can finish making the world warm enough that it is not even possible to run AI data centers due to climate conditions. Brilliant.
