<div>
For the past two years, the prevailing logic inside large
technology companies was simple: the more AI, the better. Budgets were open-ended, consumption was the metric, and anyone asking hard questions about returns was missing the point.
</div>
<div>
<br/>
</div>
<div>
That logic is breaking down. Uber, Microsoft, and Meta have all moved in recent months to cap, redirect, or scrutinize AI spending in ways that would have been unthinkable during the tokenmaxxing peak. The free-spending phase is over.
</div>
<div>
<br/>
</div>
<div>
What replaces it matters. The companies now building governance frameworks around AI
have a real opportunity to capture returns that the consumption-first approach never delivered. The ones that just install spending caps and call it discipline may end up with less to show for their AI investment, not more.
</div>
<div>
<br/>
</div>
<div>
Uber burned through its entire 2026 AI budget in four months. The company's response was not to ban AI coding tools but to impose a $1,500 monthly cap per employee per tool, tracked through an internal dashboard, with an approval process for exceptions. The system is designed to force a conversation
about cost, not to eliminate AI use.

Charles Cole, a 57-year-old North Carolina man, was indicted on wire fraud and securities fraud
charges for allegedly obtaining 239 million shares of Infinite Reality, now known as Napster, by fabricating evidence that he controlled billions of dollars he never had.
</div>
<div>
<br/>
</div>
<div>
The indictment charges Cole with one count of wire fraud, one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and one count of conspiracy to commit securities fraud. The charges carry maximum sentences of 20 years, 20 years, and five years in prison, respectively, the U.S. Attorney's Office said.
</div>
<div>
<br/>
</div>
<div>
Prosecutors allege that between June
2024 and March 2026, Cole and others acting at his direction repeatedly lied to Infinite Reality about his ability to pay for the stock. According to the indictment, Cole fabricated bank records, created fraudulent correspondence, and built a fake website designed to mirror that of a foreign bank, convincing Infinite Reality he had billions of dollars ready to invest. The company issued the shares to Cole and entities he controlled, but Cole never provided any funds.
</div>
<div>
<br/>
</div>
<div>
Infinite Reality ultimately rescinded the shares it
had issued to Cole and his entities.
