How a $30B Hedge Fund Implosion Will Effect AI

From the creator

OpenAI and Anthropic reported jaw‑dropping ARR growth, signaling surging token demand and a shift from seat‑based to consumption‑based business models. Hyperscaler capex and off‑balance‑sheet data‑center debt expose financing risks without mirroring 2008 systemic mechanisms. The collapse of the highly leveraged hedge fund Situational Awareness and Citadel’s takeover show how leverage and forced selling can amplify market moves while long‑term AI demand persists.

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
