Back in October 2025, Nvidia became the first company in history worth $5 trillion. So is AI the real deal, or a bubble waiting to pop? 🫧 This week on T-Flash: we follow Jensen Huang’s Taiwan trip, from night-market snacks to a “trillion-dollar” dinner with the island’s chip bosses, to ask the question everyone in tech is asking right now. We break down circular financing with a simple fruit-stand analogy, look at how Nvidia keeps demand for its chips so strong, and explain why TSMC has pushed Taiwan’s stock market into the world’s top four. Here in Taiwan, we invented bubble tea. So we know real bubbles from empty ones. Let’s find out which kind AI is. ⚡ Taiwan makes it. You use it. T-Flash Is Your Tech Guide.
