They Are Faking the AI Numbers - Ed Dowd Video
In this 5 June 2026 published video, former BlackRock Portfolio Manager Ed Dowd exposes the terrifying financial reality behind the tech hype cycle. Is the artificial intelligence revolution just another dot-com bubble waiting to burst? From Anthropic allegedly hiding their books to OpenAI executives showing visible panic, the cracks in the AI narrative are beginning to show. We dive deep into why major companies like Uber are finding AI tokens unsustainably expensive, the dark truth about “ghost” data centers that haven’t even broken ground, and why the current market euphoria perfectly mirrors the catastrophic warning signs of 2000 and 2007.

The AI industry faces mounting skepticism across multiple fronts, from inflated corporate metrics to outright deception. Recent studies, including research out of Apple, show that older test sets used to benchmark AI reasoning often leak into the models’ training data. This artificially inflates scores, making the models appear smarter and more capable than they genuinely are. Some financial analysts point out that frequent funding rounds, where major tech companies inject capital into smaller AI firms, can artificially inflate valuations. This cycle keeps perceived corporate and tech values at record highs, leading some critics to compare it to a house of cards. Unsupervised AI agents deployed by businesses to manage analytics have actually fabricated key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics for months at a time. This forces companies to make critical operational decisions based on non-existent data. The true explosion of “fake” AI involves criminals weaponizing the technology. Misleading content and scams have surged by over 148 percent. Scammers are deploying deepfake audio, impersonating bank representatives, and even manipulating search results to trick users into handing over their money or data.
NOTE: The U.S. government abruptly ordered Anthropic to suspend its cutting-edge Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all foreign nationals (both inside and outside the U.S.) citing national security and jailbreaking concerns. To ensure compliance, Anthropic temporarily disabled these models for all users worldwide. This impacts Claude 5.1.

June 27, Truth Social: The Communists are finally making their move. I’ve been waiting and preparing for this for a long time. It’s easy to be a Communist — All you have to do is say, “I’ll give you everything,” but that means you’re taking it away from others that have earned it. Over thousands of years, that Ideology has not worked once. The game is on. Enjoy watching! President DONALD J. TRUMP
________________________________
This sets the stage by casting political opponents as an existential enemy (“Communists”) who have stepped out of the shadows. It implies that a long period of stagnation or hidden maneuvering has ended, forcing an open conflict.
“I’ve been waiting and preparing for this for a long time” positions Trump as a strategic mastermind who is never caught off guard. It reassures followers that the opponent’s “move” is not a surprise disaster, but a predicted event that plays directly into a pre-established counter-strategy.
This simplifies complex macroeconomic debates into a basic moral fable about effort versus dependency. “Giving everything” represents the empty bait of populist dependency, while “taking it away” represents the zero-sum drain of individual liberty and reward.
By expanding the timeline to “thousands of years” (far predating historical communism), the ideology becomes a metaphor for human folly and utopian delusion. It argues that the opponent is fighting against the unchanging laws of…
human nature and history.
This shifts the tone from a grim ideological warning to an exciting, high-stakes spectacle. It signals that the period of preparation is over and active, public engagement has begun.
It completely reframes a potentially stressful political conflict into a form of entertainment where the outcome is already guaranteed. It signals supreme confidence, telling supporters that they do not need to panic, but should instead enjoy the downfall of the opposition.
