The A.I. Boom Has Found Another Gear. Why Can’t People Shake Their Worries?

It is a time of superlatives in the tech industry, with historic profits, stock prices and deal prices. It’s enough to make some people very nervous.


It would not be a stretch to describe this period of hyperactive growth in the tech industry as a historic moment.

Nvidia, which makes computer chips that are essential to building artificial intelligence, said on Wednesday that its quarterly profit had jumped to nearly $32 billion, up 65 percent from a year earlier and 245 percent from the year before that.


"A house of cards" can refer to a literal structure made of playing cards or, more commonly, a metaphorical phrase for a plan, situation, or institution that is weak, flimsy, and on the verge of collapse. The term is also the title of a popular political thriller novel and a TV series, particularly the American Netflix series starring Kevin Spacey, which is also based on the British series and novel.
