I WALKED INTO THE APPLE STORE LAST WEEK WITH AN IPHONE TOO HOT TO HOLD.

“IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT?”

THE TECHNICIAN RAN EVERY TEST. EVERYTHING CAME BACK NORMAL.

THEN HE LEANED IN AND SAID SOMETHING I’LL NEVER FORGET:

“THERE ARE 2 SETTINGS TURNED ON INSIDE YOUR IPHONE RIGHT NOW THAT ARE SLOWLY COOKING IT. APPLE TURNS THEM ON BY DEFAULT. THEY QUIETLY SHORTEN YOUR IPHONE'S LIFESPAN.”

I ASKED THE OBVIOUS QUESTION:

“SO APPLE IS WEARING OUT MY OWN PHONE ON PURPOSE?”

HE DIDN’T ANSWER.

HERE’S EVERYTHING HE SHOWED ME IN THE NEXT 5 MINUTES (SAVE THIS 🔖 YOUR IPHONE WILL THANK YOU):

More people need to know that ancient Roman engineering was so precise, their aqueducts still produce clear water to this very day - 2,000 years later.

This is Anton Kreil.

A kid from Liverpool, raised by a single mom with no money, who walked into Goldman Sachs at 20 and walked out of Wall Street at 28 with the kind of resume nobody believes is real.

His prop book at Goldman grew from $25M to over $400M in four years.

Lehman headhunted him in 2004.

JP Morgan paid him a fortune to run their global pharma, biotech, and chemicals trading franchises in 2006.

He retired in May 2007, months before the entire system blew up.

The 16 minutes below is the closest thing I've seen to an actual trader explaining how he thinks.

No fluff, no charts, just the framework that made three of the biggest banks on Wall Street fight to hire him.

Microsoft just banned its own engineers from using AI.

The tool was literally costing MORE than the humans it was supposed to replace.

They lied to you about AI adoption and now the whole narrative is blowing up:

Microsoft gave thousands of engineers access to Claude Code six months ago and encouraged them to use it.

Engineers loved it and adoption exploded. But then the invoices arrived.

Token-based pricing means every query, every code review, every debugging session costs money. At scale across 100,000 engineers, the numbers became so large that Microsoft issued an internal order to cancel nearly all Claude Code licenses by end of June and force everyone onto their own cheaper tool instead.

The company that invested $5 billion in Anthropic just told its own people to stop using Anthropic's product because it costs too much.

Uber's story is even worse...

Their CTO Praveen Neppalli Naga told The Information that the budget he planned for the full year was "blown away already" by April.

Uber had rolled out Claude Code in December 2025. By March, 84% of their 5,000 engineers were using it with 70% of all committed code coming from AI systems.

Heavy users were burning $500 to $2,000 per month each. Naga himself spent $1,200 in a single two-hour demo session.

The company had even built internal leaderboards ranking engineers by how much AI they used. They literally gamified the spending and then ran out of money.

Now look at what Nvidia's own VP of applied deep learning Bryan Catanzaro said to Axios last month. Direct quote:

"For my team, the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees."

This is a VP at the company that SELLS the chips saying that using AI is more expensive than paying humans.

Think about what this means for the entire AI narrative.

Every CEO on every earnings call for the past two years has said the same thing:

AI will make us more efficient, reduce headcount, and cut costs.

The stock market rewarded every company that said it.

Fired workers, stock goes up. Announced AI adoption, stock goes up.

But the actual companies deploying AI at scale are discovering the math doesn't work. The MORE employees use AI, the HIGHER the bill.

Goldman Sachs forecasts a 24x increase in token consumption by 2030 as companies adopt AI agents. Gartner just published a report showing that even though individual token prices will drop 90% by 2030, total enterprise AI costs will go UP because agents consume exponentially more tokens per task than basic tools.

Meta built an internal dashboard called "Claudeonomics" to track which employees use the most AI. Amazon started pushing engineers to "tokenmaxx," their internal term for consuming as many AI tokens as possible.

Both companies are spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure this year alone.

And Microsoft, the company that bet its entire future on AI, just told 100,000 engineers to stop using the tool they liked best because the per-token bills got out of control.

The companies building AI are telling investors it saves money. The companies using AI are finding out it costs more than the humans it was supposed to replace. And even the company that makes the chips just admitted it through its own VP.

This is the gap nobody on Wall Street is pricing in.

$725 billion in AI infrastructure spending this year across Big Tech. And the first companies to actually deploy these tools at scale are already pulling back because the economics don't work.

What do you think?
