"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

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....
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
use this
This reminds me of the bullshit EA cult ideology.
Does this guy think his audience is full of impressionable 3-year olds?
I think it's terrible that there's a tree out there producing air that this bastard is wasting.
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)
Agreed, however the are working on that 😤

That was the work of another bastard.
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!!!
We may consider your exemption.
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.

We should make looting data centers a religion.
Tell us what to do, oh great leader
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.
I truly hate this motherfucker.
Motherfucker not, but sisterfucker https://www.thenerve.news/p/sam-altman-annie-altman-sexual-abuse-allegations-openai-ceo-civil-case-deposition-family-dismissal
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.
Good job, Lemmy. We all had this end game nailed down well before he admitted it.
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.
Only lisp on one centralized gigant lisp-machine.
No it is also wrong
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"?
...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.
Every day these assholes are around brings us closer to floating in tanks as batteries to feed their vision.
It's a terrible idea to keep all those electrical impulses to yourself.
Well it's quite terrible for the world to have Sam Altman, but here we are.
Says the person with vast amounts of ram.
As every rich person, he's simply very eager to share.
For a price
CPU capabilities are more powerful today than ever. They think it's terrible that you have that power without getting it through them.
Will be quite terrible when your funding collapses, seems to be underway
I just hope people remember the Judas companies that chose the AI market over consumer
Is this guy mentally ill or something or has too much money and publicity gone to his head? Saying people don't need RAM in computers? I mean, if he's got a better and cheaper solution, then bring it to the world stage - maybe it could actually benefit humanity, who knows. But if you don't stop spewing nonsense just for publicity, media attention, and a stock market boost...
Money can't buy brain cells, so you don't need to worry about losing any.
And
Water is wet, so you don't need to drink it.
He's hinting at owning nothing and subscribing to cloud streaming.
"Hey, we got all the hardware. Pay us exorbitant fees and we'll do all the heavy lifting for you."
"you want your computer to do something? tell us, our computer will do it, and then you can pay us in addition to paying for your computer"
also you can't use your computer for anything we don't want you to use it for.
"and my butt smells, and I like to kiss my own butt."
It’s about endgame, which holds so much real estate in his head it likely did not occur to him to say anything but the truth on this.
You will own nothing and like it.
Basically, you spend more earnings on yet another monthly payment to have these assholes do your heavy computing tasks for you. More wealth siphon from poor to rich. More monitoring, less privacy. And most of all, remove the possibility of your own home bred AIs on your machines.
End game with data centers is to end home computing.
