Situational Awareness LP lost roughly $15 billion to $25 billion in equity value over the span of a few weeks.
Key Figures
Peak Fund Size: The fund reached up to $45 billion in total market exposure (and over $20 billion in AUM) at its peak earlier in July.
Public Equity Liquidation: The fund was forced to liquidate its entire public book—estimated at $16 billion in equities—in a fire sale to Citadel to cover margin calls.
Remaining Value: All that remains is the fund's private market assets, primarily a $5 billion stake in Anthropic.

LOL this talking down AI. It's no bubble It's the total future. Any one who has used just the free version of Chat GPT already knows this. Everything will change and fast !!! The stocks are going to rocket exponentially how can they not ?. AI will design the future, anything you could imagine. Your kids will probably never need to drive themselves just for starters.
