Fuck AI

LAN party in the alley when we lose everything!

Sadly no. AI hardware does not relies on the same fundamentals as consumer hardware.

Long story short AI stuff use Float 4 or 8 because accuracy is not a factor. Games or physics simulation use Float 32 or 64.

People replying to this with "muh enterprise" don't understand that I can still plug in a Supermicro server with the correct power input, spin up Linux, and do whatever the hell I want with my giga ultra 8x NVlink GPU 2X Xeon CPU morbillion dollar server.

Now even though it will be sold for a measly couple thousand dollars after the collapse, it doesn't mean I can't burn through my unemployment savings to have fun lol.

Nvidia and rest of manufacturers will set fire to abandoned data centers before allowing a big second hand market nuking their profits

If you are being slightly serious, I hate to break it to you, but the HPC equipment that is taking up all manufacturing capacity has limited consumer use. It's just so power hungry, specialized, and heavy.

You're imagining a change to the power structure of the world without having to fight and die for it. It has never worked like that.

The 8 hour day was the result of strikes that involved the strikers getting beaten and killed by the police.

People clamoring for the system to finally fail but not organizing for the day after is not going to have a happy ending.

Considering AI is the tool of fascists... I don't see this one happening.

I have fears that not only will the economy collapse, we are in for something much worse, that people will not believe that this is true, and will consider it fiction until they see it with their own eyes, if they will be still alive, of course.

Yeah, "economists" love to ignore the inconvenient fact that by their own theories, economies are supposed to have periods of retraction to keep the whole thing stable.

So when decades go by where you cry "recession!" every time there are signs of that economic retraction happening, and kick the can ever-further down the road while inflation keeps rising and never goes back down because you're building a tower ever-higher out of popsicle sticks without reinforcing the base; what do you think will be the inevitable result?

"Infinite growth" has been a lie from the start. It's neither possible nor even desireable (cancer is literally uncontrolled growth). Yet anarcho-capitalists make these wild, dogmatic claims that infinite growth is how the economy is supposed to work.

It's like they'll quote the half of their (pseudoscience) theories of economics that supports their agenda, but treat the other half of those same theories as a sort of taboo.
