On the left is Ronaldo, Real Madrid spent $94M to sign him from United. At the time people said it was crazy money. On the right is Jiahui Yu, Meta (reportedly) spent $100M to sign him from Open ai.  People are saying it's crazy money. Different worlds, football and AI. Same idea: Extraordinary talent isn’t a cost. It’s an investment. Because the right person can change everything...

❗ The amounts of the two transfers are accurate. https://www.ladepeche.fr/article/2009/06/11/622700-transfert-cristiano-ronaldo-manchester-real-montant-record.html https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/les-salaires-mirobolants-de-meta-pour-d%C3%A9baucher-chez-openai-marin-orfoe?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_android&utm_campaign=share_via But these are just two examples. Opposite examples can be found in football (Messi to PSG) or in Tech (M. Mayer at Yahoo). https://www.cnews.fr/technologie/2012-07-20/yahoo-offert-plus-de-90-millions-de-dollars-marissa-mayer-51098 This is clearly a case of syllogism, since a good investment can only be measured a long time after it has been made. It's like the case of the famous cheap horse which is rare, and since rare things are expensive, a cheap horse is expensive ! https://www.linternaute.fr/dictionnaire/fr/definition/syllogisme/
