Illustration of two individuals in military attire during World War II. One person assists a wounded comrade sitting on the ground. A Soviet T-34 tank is partially visible in the background, emitting smoke and flames. The scene is set in a forested area, with birch trees and dense foliage. Another individual stands nearby with a rifle, watching the scene.

Yes, railroads were built in three big investment waves

Yes, it is totally possible that the same will happen with AI

But every single time investors were cleaned out
