    The “Vibe Revenue” Admission

    On November 14, 2025, at the Web Summit conference in Lisbon, multiple AI company CEOs acknowledged this dynamic in public for the first time.

    Brian Chesky, CEO of Airbnb, stated: “There’s a lot of vibe revenue in AI. Companies are talking about billions in pipeline that may never materialize.”

    Vinod Khosla, venture capitalist and prominent AI investor, told the audience: “Ninety-five percent of AI startups will fail. The question is which five percent become Google.”

    Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, said: “We’re in uncharted territory. Nobody knows if this scales to AGI or hits a wall at GPT-5.”

    These admissions carry weight because they contradict the growth narratives supporting current valuations. OpenAI, valued at $157 billion in its most recent funding round, reported $3.7 billion in revenue for 2025 according to The Information. The company simultaneously disclosed operating expenses of $13 billion, resulting in a $9.3 billion annual cash burn.

    According to the International Energy Agency, the world’s data-crunching infrastructure is set to consume as much electricity by 2030 as the entire nation of Japan. Data centers also require enormous amounts of water for cooling—each day, a single 1-megawatt data center consumes as much water as about 1,000 people living in the developed world, World Economic Forum data suggests.

    Also, goodbye stars, only datacenters and space junk now.

    The neoliberalism ideology, put forward in the 1980s by Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, produced the collapse of the industrial complex in every country in the so called “western world”. Since countries in Asia were much more populated and poor, western capitalists aimed at greater profits by transferring their production facilities to Asia and exploring the cheap (almost slave) labor.

    As a consequence, massive unemployment and a degradation of work quality followed in the western societies. Since the local worker had become disposable, there was no need to sustain the social contract of welfare state, that is, the institutions created in the beginning of the XX century to maintain the readiness of workers to work, by providing education, health treatment, etc. This caused the decrease in the quality of life for the major part of the working-class citizen.

    Turns out that Asian countries did not accept the role of “eternal slaves” dreamed by the western capitalist, and they managed to ride the wave and organize their societies. Thus the influence of western capitalists are decreasing globally and they are trying to create a “cold-war-like” atmosphere and reroute resources to military, so that they can impose their will by force on the Asian (and developing) countries.

    One way of doing that is fascism. Stating their “national superiority” give them a god given right to subject others by force. And having this external enemy redirect the anger of the people away from the capitalists.
