November 2022 changed everything.

ChatGPT went live, and AI felt real for the first time.

OpenAI is now worth $300B.
Anthropic? $61B.
Scale AI just sold for $29B.

But here’s what most people miss:
 - These startups burn more money than any we’ve seen in decades
 - The models are starting to look the same
 - What really matters is the data and the setup

Your environment changes results more than your AI model does.

Tech fades.
The edge is how you use it.
