Snowflake Signs B AI Deal with AWS; Meta Launches Subscriptions with AI Plans

The divide between AI infrastructure bets and consumer AI monetization is sharpening.

Snowflake locked in a billion, five-year commitment to AWS for AI CPU chips, signaling that even cloud-native giants are making massive long-term infrastructure commitments to AI compute. Meanwhile, Meta officially launched subscriptions for Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp—with AI-specific plans on the roadmap—marking the social media giant's pivot to direct consumer monetization. Together, these moves underscore two parallel AI economies: enterprise infrastructure and consumer monetization.

    The AI bubble is not like the internet bubble. The internet created infrastructure people wanted to use. AI is still selling promises that the technology can't deliver at scale.

    “AI psychosis” is the wrong framing. The issue isn't CEOs believing too much—it's that most organizations aren't ready to absorb the capabilities that actually exist.
