Billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya has issued a stark warning about the shifting AI landscape, following Chinese startup DeepSeek&#8217;s demonstration of a cost-efficient AI model that triggered a $600 billion selloff in Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) shares.
What Happened: In a detailed analysis shared on X, the former Facebook executive emphasized that the AI industry&#8217;s focus is pivoting from training to inference capabilities. 
&#8220;The battle of usage is now more about AI inference vs Training,&#8221; Palihapitiya noted, suggesting that while the U.S. should maintain export controls on AI training chips, inference chips should be treated differently.
AI training is the process of teaching an AI model to recognize patterns in data, while AI inference is the process of using that trained model to make predictions. 
Drawing a parallel to nuclear technology, Palihapitiya argued that while the U.S. shouldn&#8217;t export advanced AI training capabilities, it should promote its inference solutions globally. &#8220;We should never export our knowledge of enriching uranium&#8230; but we should export our ability to build nuclear energy if it can help advance American priorities,&#8221; he explained.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">DeepSeek, a Chinese AI startup, has released DeepSeek-V3, an open-source LLM that matches the performance of leading U.S. models while costing far less to train. The large language model uses a mixture-of-experts architecture with 671B parameters, of which only 37B are activated…

The venture capitalist, who disclosed his stake in AI chip company Groq, called for urgent collaboration with Middle Eastern allies to establish global inference infrastructure. He warned of potential market volatility affecting major tech stocks, particularly noting that Nvidia faces the highest risk while Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) remains least exposed.

Why It Matters: DeepSeek&#8217;s achievement &#8211; developing a competitive AI model for just $5.57 million compared to traditional costs in the hundreds of millions &#8211; prompted Palihapitiya to criticize U.S. innovation strategy. &#8220;We&#8217;ve been running towards the big money/shiny object spending programs&#8230; vs thinking through the problem more cleverly,&#8221; he stated.
The commentary comes as Nvidia acknowledged DeepSeek&#8217;s compliance with export controls, while major tech companies like Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) maintain substantial AI infrastructure spending plans exceeding $60 billion each for 2025.

The coin's volume soared 698% to $31.25 million over the last 24 hours, indicating massive demand among traders.

Why It Matters: Both of these coins were looking to profit from the hype surrounding China's startup DeepSeek, whose cost-effective and groundbreaking AI model has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/25/01/43253190/deepseek-ai-etfs-take-a-hard-hit-amid">challenged the dominance of U.S. companies</a> in the evolving realm.
However, it should be noted that these tokens are unrelated to DeepSeek, and the firm has yet to make any announcements about its own cryptocurrency.
The other point to consider is that the liquidity of these coins is markedly low as they aren&#8217;t traded on major cryptocurrency exchanges and are currently only available on decentralized exchanges. This makes them susceptible to wild fluctuations.&nbsp;
Furthermore, CoinMarketCap released a disclaimer indicating that the coins&#8217; circulation supply and market value had not been independently verified, requiring traders to exercise caution before proceeding with such coins.

DeepSeek-Themed Crypto Explodes 600% On AI Disruption But Here's Why You Should Be Cautious

On Monday, Google Maps, owned by Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), said that it will rename the &#8220;Gulf of Mexico&#8221; to &#8220;Gulf of America&#8221; for U.S. users.&nbsp;
What Happened: The name change will be reflected in the U.S. Geographic Names System, but the Gulf will retain its original name in Mexico, Google Maps said.
Users outside the U.S. and Mexico will see both names on Google Maps. The Interior Department also announced the renaming of Denali, North America&#8217;s tallest peak, back to Mount McKinley.

Google has previously applied similar naming conventions in other regions with disputed names, such as labeling the body of water between Japan and South Korea as the &#8220;Sea of Japan (East Sea).&#8221;
In 2012, Iran threatened legal action against Google for omitting &#8220;Persian Gulf&#8221; from its maps, which is now labeled &#8220;Persian Gulf (Arabian Gulf)&#8221; in other countries, noted Reuters.
Why It Matters: This change follows a directive from the Donald Trump administration&#8217;s Interior Department, which altered the name as part of a series of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43086509/trump-unleashes-executive-orders-on-border-security-oil-drilling-domestic-manufacturing-in-first-acts-as-president">executive actions initiated</a> by the President shortly after his inauguration on Jan. 20.
Previously, the renaming initiative sparked a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/25/01/42895985/trump-and-mexican-president-sheinbaum-spirited-clash-over-territorial-renaming-tariffs-and-cartels">spirited exchange between</a> Trump and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. Sheinbaum humorously suggested renaming North America as &#8220;Mexican America,&#8221; referencing a historical map from 1607.

Renowned investor and author&nbsp;Robert Kiyosaki on Monday predicted a major stock market crash in February and advised investors to focus on Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), gold, and silver.
What Happened: Kiyosaki discussed the prophecy on X, predicting billions in outflows from the stock and bond markets to Bitcoin.
&#8220;Bitcoin will boom, boom, boom. Get on board while you can. Get out of fake and into cryptocurrency, as well as gold and silver,&#8221; the author of the best-selling book "Rich Dad Poor Dad&#8221; wrote.
Emphasizing the bullish prediction for the apex cryptocurrency, Kiyosaki said, &#8220;Even one Satoshi will make you rich, while millions lose everything.&#8221;

On Monday, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest executed significant trades involving major companies such as Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) , Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>), and Amazon.com Inc.

The sale was valued at approximately $8.1 million. This decision comes amid growing concerns over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43219987/tesla-could-drop-over-13-due-to-trumps-potential-ev-tax-credit-cuts-fsd-and-delivery-concerns-says-gary-black">potential cuts to electric vehicle tax credits</a> under the Trump administration, as highlighted by Gary Black, Managing Partner at Future Fund LLC.

Ark Invest also increased its stake in AMD. by purchasing 42,554 shares through the ARKW ETF, amounting to a transaction worth approximately $4.89 million. AMD&#8217;s stock experienced a significant drop of 6.37%, closing at $115.01, following a broader selloff in the tech sector.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq faced heavy selling pressure, contributing to Palantir&#8217;s stock decline.
The Amazon Trade

Cathie Wood Swoops In To Buy AMD Shares Amid DeepSeek Tech Upheaval, Dumps Tesla Stock Worth $8.1 Million

Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) on Monday experienced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43232316/deepseek-jitters-shatter-us-tech-stocks-wipe-out-12-trillion-on-wall-street-analyst-eyes-four-chinese-giants-set-to-benefit">significant investor anxiety</a> following the emergence of DeepSeek, a Chinese AI firm. Despite the market&#8217;s reaction, a top analyst suggests that the demand for AI infrastructure will continue to rise.
What Happened: Deepwater Asset Management's managing partner, Gene Munster took to X, formerly Twitter, and said, "I believe the market is overreacting to DeepSeek's success."&nbsp;
He suggested that DeepSeek's achievement likely reflects progress in chip architecture but noted its impact remains uncertain. &#8220;It's unclear if it's a 5% or 500% improvement,&#8221; Munster said.
Munster also pointed out an overlooked angle in the conversation: &#8220;What's being missed today is if there is a more efficient way to train models, it could increase the level of investment to build AI infrastructure given the prospects of reaching artificial general intelligence are more achievable.&#8221;

The analyst said that the market will remain on edge until the earnings reports from major tech companies like Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).

In a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43220297/nvidia-stock-slide-as-chinas-deepseek-ai-sparks-doubts-over-gpu-spending-frenzy-what-tech-experts-are-saying">paper published last month</a>, DeepSeek researchers revealed that training the DeepSeek-V3 model used Nvidia&#8217;s H800 chips, with costs totaling under $6 million.
Why It Matters: On Monday, Nvidia also acknowledged DeepSeek&#8217;s model performance, underscoring the ongoing demand for its advanced chips.
&#8220;DeepSeek's work illustrates how new models can be created using that technique, leveraging widely-available models and compute that is fully export control compliant,&#8221; the company stated.
DeepSeek&#8217;s R1 model, described as a ChatGPT killer, has outperformed OpenAI with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43223228/satya-nadella-said-we-should-take-development-out-of-china-very-very-seriously-now-deepseeks-r1-has-emerged-as-chatgpt-killer-outperforming-openai-with-50x-cheaper-prices-heres-more">significantly lower costs</a>.

The company lost about $600 billion in market capitalization, setting a record for the largest single-day loss in U.S. stock market history.
Price Action: During the regular hours on Monday, Nvidia's shares plunged approximately 17% to $118.58. However, in the after-hours trading, the shares witnessed a 1.35% gain, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

What Happened: Bitcoin slipped below $98,000 in the early morning hours before reclaiming the $102,000 level by evening. The leading cryptocurrency navigated choppy waters for most of the day.
Ethereum rose from $3,024 to $3,230 but fell back to the upper $3,100 range late in the evening.
Nearly $700 million was liquidated from the cryptocurrency market over the last 24 hours, with long positions accounting for $537 million.
About $900 million in upside bets risked liquidation if Bitcoin drops to $95,000.
That said, around 58% of traders on Binance were positioned for Bitcoin's price increases, according to the Long/Short ratio, signaling expectations of a rebound.
Bitcoin's Open Interest rose marginally by 0.15% in the last 24 hours.

On-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant highlighted a strong correlation between Bitcoin and U.S. stocks.
"In 2024, BTC and the Nasdaq exhibited a historically strong correlation, which has reached unprecedented high levels today. A similar trend can be observed with the S&amp;P 500, although there have been brief periods of decoupling," CryptoQuant noted.
The increasing correlation suggested Bitcoin's appeal more as a traditional asset class than a hedge of inflation.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Recover As DeepSeek Troubles Mount For US Tech Stocks: Analyst Suggests BTC Could Hit Fresh Highs Over Upcoming Two Weeks

Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) has acknowledged China&#8217;s DeepSeek R1 artificial intelligence model. The startup&#8217;s emergence <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43221806/nvidia-amd-broadcom-smci-tsmc-and-other-tech-giants-lead-monday-pre-market-selloff-as-nasdaq-100-futures-plummet-over-650-points-amid-reports-of-chinese-ai-startup-deepseek-overtaking-chatgpt">coincided with a $600 billion decline</a> in Nvidia&#8217;s market value on Monday.
What Happened: The endorsement came as DeepSeek&#8217;s open-source AI model, developed for under $6 million, reportedly outperformed leading U.S. models like those from OpenAI. The achievement sparked a broader tech selloff, with Nvidia shares falling 17% and AI infrastructure stocks tumbling over 20%.
&#8220;DeepSeek&#8217;s work illustrates how new models can be created using test time scaling, leveraging widely-available models and compute that is fully export control compliant,&#8221; an Nvidia spokesperson <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/27/nvidia-calls-chinas-deepseek-r1-model-an-excellent-ai-advancement.html">told</a> CNBC. 
DeepSeeks &#8220;inference requires significant numbers of Nvidia GPUs and high-performance networking,&#8221; Nvidia said according to Reuters.
The company emphasized that DeepSeek used approved GPU versions designed for the Chinese market, countering claims about potential export violations.
The market reaction highlighted growing concerns about AI infrastructure spending after DeepSeek demonstrated comparable performance to U.S. models at a fraction of the cost. Major tech companies have committed massive capital to AI development, with Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42801720/microsoft-to-invest-80-billion-in-ai-data-centers-for-fiscal-2025">planning $80 billion in AI infrastructure spending</a> for 2025 and Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) projecting $60-65 billion.

Why It Matters: Wedbush analyst Dan Ives <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43223228/satya-nadella-said-we-should-take-development-out-of-china-very-very-seriously-now-deepseeks-r1-has-emerged-as-chatgpt-killer-outperforming-openai-with-50x-cheaper-prices-heres-more">called the selloff a</a> &#8220;golden buying opportunity,&#8221; arguing that &#8220;No US Global 2000 is going to use a Chinese startup DeepSeek to launch their AI infrastructure.&#8221;
The development aligns with recent discussions by industry leaders about &#8220;test-time scaling,&#8221; a concept championed by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. This approach suggests AI models can achieve better results by using additional computing power during inference rather than just during training.
DeepSeek&#8217;s rapid rise &#8211; becoming the most downloaded app on Apple Inc.&#8216;s U.S. App Store &#8211; has sparked debate about the sustainability of massive AI investments and their impact on data center infrastructure providers like Vertiv Holdings Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VRT#NYSE">VRT</a>) and Vistra Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VST#NYSE">VST</a>), which saw their shares plummet by nearly 30% on Monday.
Price Action: Nvidia&#8217;s stock closed at $118.58 on Monday, down 16.86% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock edged up 1.35%. Over the past year, Nvidia&#8217;s stock surged 89.81%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Nvidia, Broadcom, Nebius Group, Taiwan Semiconductor, And Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Public speaking might look effortless for tech titans, but Nvidia Corporation CEO Jensen Huang and other Silicon Valley leaders, including Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Warren Buffett, have all admitted to struggling with stage fright.
What Happened: Last year in December, Huang, known for his cool demeanor and signature leather jacket, <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/meet-nvida-ceo-jensen-huang-company-powering-ai-today-60-minutes-transcript/">revealed</a> in a &#8220;CBS 60 Minutes&#8221; interview that public speaking terrifies him.
Despite leading Nvidia—a company valued at $2.9 trillion—Huang admitted that stepping onto the stage at the GTC AI Conference was a nerve-wracking experience.
&#8220;I&#8217;m an engineer, I'm not a performer,&#8221; Huang said. &#8220;When I walked out there – and all of the people going crazy, it took the breath outta me. And so I was the scariest I&#8217;ve ever been. I&#8217;m still scared&#8221;

Warren Buffett: Conquering Stage Fright&nbsp;
The Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett has also spoken about his fear of public speaking, calling it potentially detrimental to his career. In the documentary "Becoming Warren Buffett," he shared that he enrolled in a public speaking course after graduating from business school in 1951. Decades later, Buffett still credits the course with transforming his confidence and career.

Steve Jobs: Perfected, Not Effortless&nbsp;&nbsp;
Apple Inc. co-founder Steve Jobs might have appeared natural on stage during iconic product launches, but his performances were meticulously rehearsed. According to the book "Becoming Steve Jobs," he would spend months planning and entire days perfecting a presentation.

Elon Musk: A Self-Admitted Weakness&nbsp;&nbsp;
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, one of the most outspoken tech leaders today, is known for his frequent and often controversial posts on X, formerly Twitter.
Despite his public persona, Musk has openly admitted his discomfort with public speaking. In 2019, he posted, "I'm such a bad public speaker! Damn."

Jensen Huang's Biggest Fear Isn't AI Competition—It's Pre-Show Butterflies: How Silicon Valley's Coolest Leaders Like Mark Zuckerberg And Elon Musk Are Gripped With Stage Fright

Shares of Fannie Mae (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FNMA#OTC">FNMA</a>) and Freddie Mac (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FMCC#OTC">FMCC</a>) fell Monday after Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods analysts downgraded the stocks to Underperform. Here's a look at the latest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/12/42734220/bill-ackman-sends-fannie-mae-freddie-mac-stocks-soaring-trump-likes-big-deals">developments for the mortgage giants. </a>
What To Know: The Keefe, Bruyette &amp; Woods analysts, led by Tommy McJoynt, said that though the odds of a privatization attempt have grown lately, they see "considerable risk" to the stocks at their current levels. Shares of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are up 333% and 343%, respectively, since the day before the election of President Donald Trump.

The analysts increased the probability of the senior preferred shares being forgiven to 10% from 5%, but said they see a failed attempt at privatization or a successful privatization with dilution of senior preferred shares to common as more likely outcomes.&nbsp;
However, the firm did raise the price target for Fannie Mae from $3 to $4 and raised Freddie Mac from $4 to $4.50 based on the higher probability of forgiveness of the senior preferred shares.&nbsp;
What Else: Trump recently announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/43040244/trump-taps-bill-pulte-to-lead-the-federal-housing-finance-agency">plans to nominate</a> private equity CEO Bill Pulte as director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), which is expected to oversee efforts to return Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to the private sector, according to Reuters.
FNMA, FMCC Price Action:  According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, Fannie Mae shares closed Monday down 4.88% at $5.46 and Freddie Mac shares closed down 3.25% at $5.06.

Meme coin Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>), associated with President Donald Trump, launched ahead of the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/01/43139381/how-many-people-watched-donald-trumps-2025-inauguration-spoiler-less-than-biden-four-years-ago"> Jan. 20 inauguration day</a> and took the cryptocurrency sector by storm.
A new poll shows readers are split on whether they would consider buying the meme coin.
What Happened: Posts made on X and Truth Social announced the official<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43140514/what-comes-next-after-donald-trumps-meme-coin-launch"> launch of the Trump coin</a>, with some users believing the incoming president of the U.S. had been hacked.
Instead, the launch was done before Trump officially became president and he later confirmed his involvement with the cryptocurrency.
A large portion of the coin&#8217;s supply is controlled by Trump-affiliated companies, but retail investors also bought up supply of the coin. This and other factors may be keeping people from accumulating the cryptocurrency.
"Would you consider buying the Trump meme coin?" Benzinga recently asked its readers.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>No: 58%</li>
<li>Yes: 42%</li>
</ul>
The poll, which was conducted between Jan. 21 and Jan. 22, saw a mixed reaction from readers with the majority favoring not buying the coin. At the time the poll was conducted, TRUMP traded between prices of around $36 and $48.
At the time of writing, the coin trades at $27.02, continuing a drop since Trump's inauguration.
Ark Invest CEO and founder Cathie Wood is no stranger to cryptocurrency as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/08/34028505/exclusive-why-does-cathie-wood-think-bitcoin-is-going-to-1-million-what-does-she-know-that">a big believer </a>in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and investor in both BTC and companies associated with cryptocurrency.
In <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43151588/cathie-wood-was-asked-if-she-would-buy-trump-coin-heres-what-she-said">a recent interview</a>, Wood said the Official Trump coin was part of the "meme coin moment" and that Ark has avoided meme coins.
"I mean there is speculation that you'll get to meet President Trump as one of the utilities of owning this coin. I don't know if that's the case or not. But so far, we don't know of much utility for this coin, except that it is a meme coin of President Trump," Wood said.
Wood said that Ark Invest stays away from buying meme coins like Trump, choosing instead to invest in the "Big Three" cryptocurrencies, which are Bitcoin, Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) and Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), according to the fund manager.
The Ark Invest CEO <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39449163/cathie-wood-endorses-trump-over-biden-for-2024-elections-says-i-am-a-voter-when-it-comes-to-economic">endorsed Trump </a>in the 2024 presidential election.

Why It's Important: While Trump coin has fallen 26% over the past seven days, the cryptocurrency connected to the sitting president has attracted plenty of attention and 42% saying they would consider buying the coin shows the potential lasting power of the coin.

Elon Musk won the poll with 61% of the vote. The Tesla CEO would likely share his ownership in a tweet or interview and has not done so to date.
Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) finished second in the poll at 20%. Greene would need to disclose the purchase within 45 days as part of the STOCK Act.

Cathie Wood Passes On Trump Meme Coin, Poll Shows Investors Split With 58% Saying This

Back in 2017 – long before ChatGPT became a household name and artificial intelligence started raising existential questions – Bill Gates floated a bold idea: tax the robots. The Microsoft cofounder suggested that companies deploying automation to replace human workers should pay taxes on those machines, just as they do on human wages. At the time, it was a strikingly simple yet provocative proposal aimed at tackling an issue most people didn't even realize was coming.
Fast-forward to today when fears about AI replacing jobs are no longer sci-fi speculation but a looming reality. Gates' idea now seems eerily prophetic. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43196923/ai-can-write-the-code-zuckerberg-says-metas-midlevel-engineers-earning-six-figures-may-soon-be-replaced">Automation has made massive inroads</a> into industries ranging from manufacturing to logistics, and the resulting economic implications have sparked a global debate. Suddenly, the idea of taxing robots has gone from a hypothetical thought experiment to a serious policy consideration.

</ul>
The Case for a Robot Tax
In a 2017 interview with Quartz, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/01/42802980/bill-gates-is-so-frugal-he-wears-a-10-watch-but-spent-42000-in-fines-for-manure-bins-at-his-daughters-8-7-million-florida-horse-farm">Gates explained his rationale</a> in clear terms: If a human worker earning $50,000 annually is taxed, why wouldn't a robot performing the same job face a similar levy? He proposed using the revenue generated from such taxes to fund social programs, retrain displaced workers and create new jobs in fields requiring human empathy like elder care and education.
"You cross the threshold of job replacement all at once," Gates explained, referencing industries like warehouse work and driving already on the brink of automation. His argument wasn't about punishing innovation but rather managing its societal impacts. By slowing automation "just a bit," Gates believed communities and governments could better adapt to the economic disruption. He placed the responsibility squarely on governments, stating that businesses alone couldn't address rising inequities.

Universal Basic Income: A Logical Next Step?
Although Gates didn't explicitly tie his robot tax proposal to universal basic income (UBI), the idea has often been linked to his vision. During a 2017 Reddit AMA, Gates acknowledged that the U.S. wasn't yet "rich enough" to implement UBI but suggested it might be possible. His recent commentary on UBI has evolved. In his 2024 Netflix series What's Next? The Future With Bill Gates, he notes that addressing poverty through measures like UBI could save money in the long run. He pointed to statistics showing that child poverty alone costs over $1 trillion annually in the U.S.
Others have built on the idea of linking a robot tax to UBI. French presidential candidate Benoit Hamon proposed partially funding a UBI through such a tax. At the same time, prominent tech leaders like Elon Musk and Richard Branson have suggested that automation will make UBI inevitable. Musk, in particular, has warned that large-scale job losses due to AI and robotics will require governments to provide a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/07/39619831/elon-musk-predicts-jobs-will-become-obsolete-but-he-foresees-a-high-universal-income-that-acts-as-an">safety net for displaced workers</a>.

Stanford lecturer Kartik Gada has taken a more optimistic approach, arguing that technological deflation – where goods and services become cheaper as technology advances – could fund UBI without increasing individual taxes. His ATOM publication even suggests that deflationary pressures created by automation might naturally offset the costs of a universal income program.
The Criticism: Innovation vs. Regulation
Not everyone is on board with taxing robots. Critics argue that such a tax could stifle innovation by discouraging companies from investing in automation. They contend that slowing technological progress would put countries at a competitive disadvantage globally. Others propose alternative solutions like universal basic dividends funded by the profits of tech companies as a less intrusive way to redistribute wealth.
Despite these critiques, automation is accelerating. Industrial robot orders have reached record highs, and AI is creeping into more job sectors than ever before. The COVID-19 pandemic supercharged the trend, with companies like Amazon doubling down on robotics to keep warehouses operational during labor shortages.

A Debate That's Far From Over
As automation continues to reshape industries, Gates' robot tax remains one of the most intriguing and polarizing ideas. While some see it as a way to balance innovation with societal needs, others fear it could hinder progress. What's clear is that the conversation Gates started in 2017 is more relevant than ever.
The question isn't just whether robots should be taxed but how society can navigate a future where machines increasingly take on roles once held by humans. Whether through robot taxes, UBI or some yet-to-be-discovered solution, one thing is certain: how we think about work, taxation and social safety nets will have to change.

Here's How Much $100 Invested In Travelers Companies 20 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

The AI boom that fueled a historic rally in semiconductor and infrastructure stocks over the past two years came to a screeching halt Monday, as a wave of selling swept through the market following the launch of DeepSeek, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/01/43243584/deepseek-r1-vs-openai-what-consumers-need-to-know-about-ais-latest-challenger">China's open-source AI model.</a>
While NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) grabbed the top of headlines for its $600 billion market-cap wipeout — the largest single-day loss in U.S. market history — and triggered a 7.8% fall in the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>), the pain was even more severe in AI infrastructure stocks, which have soared on expectations of an arms race in AI-driven capital expenditures.
Power, cooling and data center giants that once rode the AI euphoria saw single-day losses exceeding 20%, as investors reassessed the sustainability of relentless spending in the sector.

&#8220;What makes Monday&#8217;s tech sell-off so jarring is that the valuations of many of these AI and tech companies offer no margin of error. Excessive valuation always becomes a problem, eventually, but fundamental news becomes a heightened problem when it is combined with excessive valuation,&#8221; said David Bahnsen, chief investment officer at The Bahnsen Group.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Why These AI Infrastructure Stocks Soared, Why They're Crashing Now</h1>
Stocks tied to data centers, power and networking, some of the biggest winners of the AI boom over the past two years, were hammered Monday as investors started questioning whether the relentless spending on AI infrastructure is truly sustainable.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">1. Vertiv Holdings Co</h1>
Vertiv, a leader in data center cooling, surged 251% in 2023 and another 136% in 2024 as AI-driven computing loads pushed cooling demand through the roof. Yet, with concerns that data center expansion could slow, shares plunged nearly 30% on Monday, marking the worst day since Feb. 2022. 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">2. Vistra Corp. </h1>
Vistra, one of the biggest power suppliers, had been riding the AI energy boom on bets that AI-driven electricity demand would continue to soar. Monday's sell-off crushed that narrative, sending shares down 28%, the worst single-day decline since the company went public in 2017.
In 2024, Vistra returned 257% to shareholders, recording the second-strongest performance among S&amp;P 500 stocks behind Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>). 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">3. Astera Labs </h1>
Astera Labs, which specializes in connectivity chips for AI workloads, went public in 2024 and quickly gained 154% as its products became critical for AI data centers. However, Monday's rout saw the stock plummet nearly 30%, the worst drop since the company&#8217;s IPO last March, as investors feared a pullback in AI server deployments.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">4. Comfort Systems USA</h1>
Comfort Systems, a HVAC and engineering solutions provider for commercial buildings and data centers, surged on AI-related construction demand. Yet, with AI firms now potentially reining in expansion, shares fell 26%. This represented the worst one-day drop since October 1999. 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">5. Arista Networks </h1>
Arista Networks, a leading supplier of high-speed networking equipment for cloud providers, nearly doubled in 2023 as AI-driven upgrades boosted orders. Yet, with DeepSeek's efficiency raising questions about demand for high-end AI networking, the stock slid 22%.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">6. GE Vernova </h1>
GE Vernova, the energy spin-off from General Electric, had benefited from AI-driven electrification trends, posting a 185% gain in 2024. However, with data center demand expectations cooling, shares slumped 21.5%.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">7. Constellation Energy</h1>
Constellation, a nuclear energy leader, had been a key bet for long-term AI power needs, rallying 91% in 2024. On Monday, CEG shares tumbled 21% — the largest drop since the company&#8217;s IPO in 2022 — amid investor doubts creeping in over AI's real energy demand.
