No One Can W1N
A Technology Insider’s Case Against the AI Boom
Trillions of dollars have been committed on one sentence: “Whoever wins AI wins.” No One Can Win follows the money from the chip to the data center to the bond to the retirement account, and finds a race built so that no one can win it, and a bill headed to people who never entered it.
Todd runs his business on AI every day. He knows what it can do, and what it can’t. An economist by education, he has run the numbers on what happens when trillions of borrowed dollars find out the difference.
