Ah, the Allbirds play.
Let’s see how this works out.
This shit is wild.

This is the most bubblicious bubble to ever bubble.
Literally the easiest pump and dump ever. Company failing and you want to dump your shares at a good price? Announce you're doing AI! How? Who cares?! It's AI!
The company got bought and switched to AI after that. The new owner basically bought access to the stock market without having to create a new company and make an IPO.
I'm still waiting for them to announce the upgrade path. My remaining pair of Allbirds shoes still doesn't have any AI functionality. No care for old cusomers.
Check under the heel, that’s usually where the AI is.
You have to buy new ones, silly. What do you think this is, something other than late stage capitalism?
