   Our readingEvery hyped business attracts negative sentiment nobody has an incentive to correct — and inference makes sense as a business long-term, whatever the training costs are.

   Their wordsThere's always negative sentiment that exists for any business that's getting hyped. They have no incentive to correct it. Um so again it's complicated because I know the training costs are a big part of it.
