HYPERSCALERS
bearish
Klement on Investing · article
SLMs running on local PCs match or beat LLMs in 81% of tasks at 50-85% lower energy cost, eliminating the revenue growth needed to justify hundreds of billions in data center capex
“data centres may be the worst investment in the AI space one can make right now”
If this is true, the hyperscalers are toast
2026-08-19
NVDA
bearish
Klement on Investing · article
SLM trend collapses demand for high-end data center GPUs, and even a pivot to cheaper desktop AI chips would materially compress Nvidia's margins and revenue growth
“we do not need to invest in the most advanced Nvidia chips”
If this is true, the hyperscalers are toast
2026-08-19
long DELL / long AAPL
basket
Klement on Investing · article
As SLMs shift AI compute from cloud data centers to local endpoint devices, desktop PC manufacturers—not hyperscalers or GPU makers—become the true AI capex beneficiaries
“the true winners of the AI boom will not be the providers of advanced hardware and data centres but the boring manufacturers of desktop computers like Dell and Apple”
If this is true, the hyperscalers are toast
