When we set the upper limit of PC-DOS at 640K, we thought nobody would ever need that much memory. — William Gates, chairman of Microsoft

That might be true if we didn’t start using the internet to send video and audio

This is goddamned amazing.
Man I might be a wierdo here, but I don't want to give him free data. His company has stolen enough as it is.
That was my first though too. The whole point is to stop sending them our data. But like someone else said, it doesn't need to be real. Maybe we start reporting there's a shit ton ram on Jupitor ripe for assimilation.
Here's the unused ram that I keep laying around in a box. Can someone tweet it at Sam for me?

Get a load of Mr. Moneybags over here. They have memory AND a video card just laying around.
A SSD as well (top right).
128gb, that'll fit like 3-4 models, sweet!
Man, these days that's a dangerous pic. Gonna have roving ram gangs knocking down your door
Reminder this can put you in prison in Australia
“Offensive” conduct must be more than merely hurtful, annoying or vexing. It must be “calculated or likely to arouse significant anger, significant resentment, outrage, disgust, or hatred in the mind of a reasonable person in all the circumstances.” Moreover, it must “be likely to have a serious effect upon the emotional well-being of an addressee.”
I dunno if that's entirely true but maybe I'm misunderstanding this - it seems kinda open to interpretation.
Ram altman is a snowflake though
Look at harassment, not offence
“harassing” conduct, imply a “serious potential effect upon an addressee, one which causes apprehension, if not a fear, for that person’s safety"
Easy to argue that case with how upset a large portion of society are about what he's doing
isn't it punishment enough living in Australia?
We could also save a lot of energy if we stopped using our brains, and instead have AI think for us.
Did anyone ever think of that?
In fact, the AI data centers can better use that energy. If only there were some way we could capture the energy our body inefficiently generates and use it to help the data centers, almost like a battery.
We could even feed back some of the energy we give to the data centers to put our minds at ease, perhaps by simulating a matrix of stimulus approximating, you know, the height of human civilization...

This will be the most satisfying bubble burst i've ever witnessed.
I don't think so. The people responsible will have their golden parachutes, while the rest of us will have to deal with the full blown recession.
More like depression
And also a struggling economy.
Based on the spelling on the Github page, I'm not running this. There's an absolute lack of attention to detail advertised by the abysmal writing in the Readme. Say what you will, but red flags are red flags; and after a few decades we learn that sloppy writing is sloppy writing.
It's a 287 line shell script; it's pretty easy to read. It's also very obviously LLM generated
287 lines to run free | mailx?? Jesus what has the world come to
The world is so hot right now
Because of the data centers cooking the planet.... right?
Yup, with AI you can make things hot
I have a computer with 352 GB just sitting there doing nothing. I finally have a use for it!
How the F did this guy convince all the world's richest people to invest in his chatbot?
"Hey guys, if we trade money back and forth for a couple years people will think we'll be worth more and we can leverage our stock options to make shitloads of money we can use to take even greater control of the economy"

Old MacDonald had a RAM, E-I-E-I-O!
