A chief economist at investment giant Apollo says the top ten AI stocks are more detached from reality than the tech titans of the 1990s were. His chart is a stark warning that history is about to repeat itself.

But when I asked AI it said that it was a great investment...Nevermind, I see the issue now.

I'm unable to replicate your results. I get a long and nuanced aswer. Mind sharing the answer you got?

When I asked the same thing the conclusion was:

So is AI a good investment? The sector has long-term potential, especially in areas like chip manufacturing, enterprise automation, and maybe foundational model licensing. But it's also deeply speculative right now, with prices reflecting hype as much as earnings.

If you're thinking long-term and can stomach volatility, AI is worth including. If you're chasing short-term returns because you think “AI is the future,” you might be buying someone else’s exit.

I was just trying to be funny. I didn't literally ask AI. I just assumed the model would be trained to encourage investment.
