Truly, truly, truly pathetic
AI slop thumbnail on the anti-AI text.🤡
I was going to ask “What’s your point?” but then I realized that this post isn’t even anti-AI.
The text of this post highlights anticompetitive business practices that have nothing to do with OpenAI’s business model.
Straight up - they can’t even use the silicon wafers.
This is just market manipulation to harm their competition and possibly engage in stock market fuckery. (Micron, which stands to make billions, is largely owned by U.S. based wealth management companies.)
OpenAI and its business partners stand atop a massive bubble that they are desperate to not have pop. I’m horrified, but kind of impressed at the maneuver.
You’re throwing stones in the wrong direction.
People who have been holding off on building a new systems due to part prices since 2020

Thank you for subscribing to Patient Gamers!
This community harnesses the power of tech development, but waits till state of the art becomes bookend. Not only do we save old computer parts from the landfill, but when we play, we play without day-zero bugs.
I am currently living about 13 years behind current times, but man are those Tombraiders good.
Just when I started considering that maybe it's time to look at new parts, a new hurdle candy into view. My computer might graduate from elementary school before I can get a decent price on parts. Or maybe they're will never be decent prices on parts again.
Why are we censoring the word fuck
This is a Christian Minecraft server
The AI industry is apparently in need of a file system check.
I normally dislike self censorship of profanity, but replacing fuck with fsck (filesystem check) is a Unix joke, and I can appreciate that.
Eh, I hadn't bothered to read the comm rules and doing a filesystem check is a suitable pain in the ass. BTW the last word was originally shitfuckery.
Ok self cencoring is always bad.
If you want to avoid swear words use a different one like screw, curse, to hell or sth. Like that.
If you want to curse then just do it. Censoring it makes it weak and stupid.
And in my opinion no rules should ban the word fuck but allow f*ck.
It is useless and annoying.
But fsck (file system check) instead of fuck is a Unix joke. I think it’s fine.
Otherwise I broadly agree with you. It’s why I’ve adopted the swearing from Stormlight Archive for use around audiences that I shouldn’t swear around.
You don't want to get shadow banned on lemmy for anti corporate speech now do you?
I thought anti corporate speech was required to have your account approved?
i wish ceos a very happy not existing
What was the zombie flick that people were eating some dude's leg and tourniquet it to keep him alive to keep eating him?
I want to do that to ceos. Truly the most ethical way to be a carnivore.
I'm emphatically not saying somebody should soccer-kick Altman repeatedly right in the scrotum, I'm just saying I'd enjoy a good drink with a sigh of contentment if someone did.
Altman is the type of guy who pays to have his balls kicked though…
I don't care if he enjoys it or not. If it prevents him from passing on his clearly defective genes, I'm all for him chasing that Darwin Award.
so happy I built a new PC last year. so pissed I cant make a new server this year
so happy I built a new PC last year

Since we've all enjoyed SaaS allowing us to pay monthly fees until death for everything from our word processor to our sleep tracker, get ready for Compute as a Service to take over everything else once none of us can afford home computing.
yes this is terrifying, actually.
For a personal server, just buy a liquidated office/business workstation and add storage as needed. Probably will still be cheap since the win10 EOL has led a bunch of those machines onto auction sites.
I appreciate the advice, but that's what I've got already. It works well, but I was hoping to make a significant upgrade and move away from spinning disks and such.
When tf investors are going to ask for returns on their investments? That's the only thing that can pop this bubble.
They're probably the only reason it hasn't popped yet: still searching for someone to hold the bag. But the longer they wait, the bigger the number gets and the less likely it is for them to find one. Eventually someone's going to cut their losses and it's going to be a bloodbath.
OpenAI and Anthropic are going public soon. They're trying to offload the bag on the public.
OpenAI and Anthropic are going public soon.
What do companies must disclose before going public?
Oh wait, this US administration doesn't give a fuck about that. I'm fully expecting IPOs with no documentation other than 'trust me bro'.
They would just have GPT vibe draft some good looking financial statements.
Eventually someone's going to cut their losses and it's going to be a bloodbath.
Me rn: BLINK, MOTHERFUCKERS!
Just a few more billions guys, real close now! Maybe a few dozen more after that, but it's really getting there!
Oh, look a squirrel!
They probably don’t care. Since it drives the entire stock market up. They probably make big bucks on the other side trading derivatives on the financial market making returns that will outgrow the investments in OpenAI. It’s a convoluted version of a pump and dump. Pump up OpenAI so they can dump NVidia options.
Also OpenAi will go public soon. The dot com bubble didn’t pop until all those companies that never made a dime went public. Since investors were then able to dump their holdings into retail investors.
Not to say that this is particularly hard to believe, but do you have a source?
idk why OP didn't just link the original article. https://www.mooreslawisdead.com/post/sam-altman-s-dirty-dram-deal
and numerous further sources at the bottom of that piece e.g. https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/dram/openais-stargate-project-to-consume-up-to-40-percent-of-global-dram-output-inks-deal-with-samsung-and-sk-hynix-to-the-tune-of-up-to-900-000-wafers-per-month
Sorry, thought I had, apparently I don't understand the post creation mechanism as well as I thought. Thanks for the catch, I'll edit the text.
Hmpff, when I added the image it overwrote the original URL, not exactly intuitive, probably makes sense for memes.

This is how I feel literally every single day, and somehow every single day gives me a new reason to feel like this... I'm so sick of this timeline...
