I think it's terrible that there's a tree out there producing air that this bastard is wasting.

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

Don't worry, he's working on a method of bottling and distributing air for purchase, so that you can have fresh air in your home or community!
He's partnered with Aloysius O'Hare on it.
(This is a joke. It's a reference to The Lorax by Dr. Seuss)
That is a waste but what if that tree (or any tree, really) was used to hang him upside down so he can be beaten with shitty sticks...for a good ten years or so?
Ok, I've had an idea. How about an orchard of trees specifically for all CEO's to be hung from (feet, neck. Your choice) then beaten with shitty sticks?
I mean I could buy an orchard for this, and start up a business of charging people to beat CEOs with shitty sticks.
Hell, I could be the CEO of Shitty Stick Orchard!!
Uh oh...
ok, when I said all CEO's then I didn't mean me!!!
The trees deserve better and the Lorax is like knee height. I like my knees.
We may consider your exemption.
Agreed, however the are working on that 😤

That was the work of another bastard.
use this
This dude needs to be rammed into a prison cell
Is it terrible then that I have a kitchen instead of buying all my food from McDonald's?
If you ask their execs... They'd probably say "yes" and somehow lobby to remove kitchens from new home builds. Lol
These AI CEOs are all so out of touch. They talk like they believe everyone lives in a mansion in can Fransisco with 1000gb/s Internet connection 24/7 and zero down time.
If I had to rely on off-site RAM I would be screwed so so often.
It’s not about the bandwidth. It’s about them charging you for use.
Arrest him
there are other options....
Does this guy think his audience is full of impressionable 3-year olds?
It's quite terrible that people like this exist and we can't fire them into the sun...
Stop quoting this moron.
Yeah, what he's saying is completely unreasonable on its face. Data centers have an average utilization of 12-15% according to IBM, and there's 500 billion USDs of unused GPUs in warehouses.
However most people don't fucking know that. Sam "I fucked my sister" Altman shouldn't get a voice at all.
He can have socialism of ram when we have socialism of wealth. Fuck this guy.
stupid fuck is so damned greedy, he cant think straight
It's not just the greed, it's the sense of entitlement.
thats one of greed's outlooks
I will buy 128 gigs of ddr5 ram come and take that sam
He's not wrong, just completely fucking tonedeaf.
Ok, yea, sure, from a resource allocation perspective, it does make the most sense to centralize power. Having one giant system running at 80% is more efficient than having a thousand small systems running at 20%. This is why we virtualize servers.
The problem is, we want and need our RAM for more things than having conversations with your "brain"-washed hallucinating spy-bots.
Yes one centeralized system running php is the way to go.
No it is also wrong
...sigh...it seems people think that I'm siding with Sham Faultman here. I'm not.
There are, however, absolutely benefits to consolidating tech. Lots of them. Far better compute/watt and compute/dollar. Like...significantly. It makes a lot of sense for businesses to consolidate into VMs on a handful of large clustered servers, as opposed to running a bazillion pizza boxes each doing one thing.
There are also drawbacks to consolidating tech. Lots of them. Probably chief anong them being privacy and ownership of data. And that's a big thing.
I don't think you side with him, I'm just correcting that he also is wrong in his statement, which is incorrect and no it is not better to pool all compute into datacenters
Sorry, but telling something is "wrong" without any "correct" alternative is questionable, too.
As if, how are we sure it's not trolling if no actual evidence/reference is stated by just "wrong"?
Correct is that anyone can own processing power
This reminds me of the bullshit EA cult ideology.
It’s quite terrible OpenAI has a CEO named Sham Cultman
640kb should be enough for everybody! You greedy people having the choice among 8gb PCs today (nvm you could afford 32gb as standard a year ago) are just spoiled traitors.
It's quite terrible his body has water.
I think Scam Altman has gotten high on his own supply. He doesn't even realize the nonsense he spews out anymore.

C'mon guys, the way you use your ovens is like really inefficient.
Stop buying ovens, let us buy all the ovens. Then whenever you need to cook something come get it from my restaurant instead.
Good job, Lemmy. We all had this end game nailed down well before he admitted it.
I truly hate this motherfucker.
Him and Mister Beast really out here competing for "Most Soulless, Roundhouse-Kickable Face."
I have 96gb of ram in my pc for no real reason,I hope he loses sleep over this.
64 here. It was for large Blender scenes but retroactively I'm happy to say it was just to piss him off.
