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.

My son is already drooling at the prospect of getting his hands on some of their RAM.
Hate to break it to you (or your son), but the kind pf RAM theyve got in that datacenter is not compatible with your son’s computer.
It’s essentially worthless for any purpose other than the type of GPUs they put in a LLM data center. That’s part of why their business is so dumb.
The reason RAM prices have skyrocketed is because the limited number of RAM fabrication facilities have mostly converted their setup to produce the type of RAM that only works for slop instead of the consumer grade stuff.
So your son and I are both gonna need to wait for those RAM fabrication facilities to realize that the people ordering years worth of their work don’t actually have the money to pay for their order. At that point they will likely convert the fabrication facilities back to normal RAM production, and a couple of years after thar happens RAM prices will begin to approach sensible levels again.
I am very excited to buy some of the large HDDs currently being hoarded by the slop mongers when they soon eat shit tho… I’ma build me a fat RAID.
Also, the system designs in general expect more power than a residential circuit can provide, some more than an EVSE circuit. So folks imagining buying a system that does have the memory are also going to be disappointed.
The storage is the most likely to come over, with the caveat of some awkward EDSSF form factor, but enclosures I could see becoming available with a big enough opportunity. E1.L might be the trickiest, but those aren't too popular in the datacenters either.
