"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

It’s not like normal PC manifacturers where they need to buy already made sticks at market price

AFAIK, they also negotiate and buy product into the future. The only difference is the product is the stick, sent by the palette from the factory, instead of a spool of memory chips. Neither are paying the market price, they negotiate a price for delivery a year in advance.
