I’ve kept a close eye on this for awhile but am yet to find anything I love as there was too much hype at the start of 2022 around these stocks and they’ve pretty much all come back down to earth. The next run is about to begin so there will be some golden opportunities in the next year that will pop up for sure.
My main holdings at the moment are in lithium/graphene.

Re: OT: AI has advanced to the point of overtaking sports journalism
I asked it to write a poem about the Celtics.
The Boston Celtics, a team of green and white,
A storied franchise with a history of might.
From Russell to Bird, they've captured many a crown,
A dynasty of champions, with no one to bring them down.
But years have passed, and the Celtics have struggled to soar,
But now, at last, they've returned to the floor.
With a new coach, and a talented young crew,
They've stormed through the season, and they're ready to go.
Against all odds, they've battled their way,
Through the playoffs and into the fray.
The championship is theirs for the taking,
And with one last push, they'll be unshakable.
The final game arrives, and the Celtics are strong,
Their opponents are fierce, but they will not be outdone.
With heart and soul, they fight for the win,
And when the final buzzer sounds, they've done it again.
The Boston Celtics are champions once more,
A new era has dawned, and they will rise to the fore.
With pride and honor, they'll carry the banner high,
For the Boston Celtics, this is only the start of a new sky

Yeah - last year I didn't even care what I was in. Everything was going up everyday it was great. Now that I'm down 35% YTD - things are dicey. But I think you're right, we're about to get into an insane bull run here so I'm ready to get back in...

I don’t think there will be a bull run on all stocks, just in the AI sector and maybe some commodities. Everything else will probably be sideways for a bit.

Are you bullish on META? I bought some when it was under $100

Many claim RJ Barrett has already been exposed an a robot with poorly functioning AI, but that did little to prevent the knicks from giving him 120 million dollars over the next 4 seasons.

I am fine with AIs replacing the Stephen As & the Skips as long as they can be put in "chill" mode so they aren't always yelling and so intense. This has made talking heads on cable unwatchable for me.

It'd be a boon for sports that get subjective like when Boxing and MMA fights go to the judges, who are often either corrupt, incompetent or both.

Re: OT: AI has advanced to the point of overtaking sports journalism
While AI has the potential to revolutionize many fields, it is unlikely that it will ever replace sports journalism. This is because sports journalism is not just about presenting facts and statistics, but also about storytelling and capturing the emotions and excitement of the game. AI may be able to provide factual information about a game, but it lacks the creativity and human connection necessary to truly capture the essence of sports. Additionally, sports journalism often involves on-the-ground reporting and interviews with players and coaches, which AI is not capable of doing. In short, the unique combination of human storytelling and reporting skills make it unlikely that AI will ever be able to replace sports journalism.

On the other hand...
While it is true that sports journalism involves more than just reporting the facts of a game and requires analysis, commentary, and storytelling, it is not necessarily true that AI is incapable of performing these tasks. AI has been shown to be capable of performing complex language processing tasks, such as summarization, translation, and sentiment analysis, which are all relevant to sports journalism. In addition, AI can be trained to understand and analyze data, such as player statistics, which can help to provide insight and analysis in sports journalism. Furthermore, while AI may not have the ability to understand and cover the human aspect of sports in the same way that a human journalist can, this is not necessarily a limitation, as sports journalism is increasingly focused on data-driven analysis rather than human interest stories. Overall, while AI may not be able to fully replace human journalists in sports journalism, it can certainly play a valuable role in the field.

Re: OT: AI has advanced to the point of overtaking sports journalism
Uh oh, ChatGPT can replace us too...
There are several compelling reasons why professional basketball games should be played outside on assfault, including the benefit of bringing pets to games. First, playing on assfault allows for a more authentic and immersive experience, as it is the surface on which many people first learn to play basketball. This can help to create a more energetic and exciting atmosphere for both players and fans, and can also help to encourage more creative and spontaneous play. Second, allowing pets at games can help to create a more relaxed and family-friendly atmosphere, which can help to attract a wider range of fans and make the games more accessible to everyone. This can also help to foster a sense of community and inclusion, and can provide an opportunity for people to spend time with their pets while enjoying a fun and exciting sporting event. Overall, the benefits of playing professional basketball games outside on assfault, including the ability to bring pets to games, make it a potentially attractive option for both players and fans.
