coupled with the fact that the cartels refuse to expand production; this tells me they’re realistic about the moment - it’s not going to be a decade of future humongous peak RAM consumption, because otherwise they’d be blisteringly stupid (to lose out on those potential increased sales)… https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/dram/memory-makers-have-no-plans-to-increase-production-despite-crushing-ram-shortages-modest-2026-increase-predicted-as-dram-makers-hedge-their-ai-bets

No Gabe, you fucked up with these price hikes

…in the universe you live in, is there cheap ram?

can I send you money for some please?

(parents) are overworked, underpaid, living in tiny apartments they can barely afford, have to pay more in childcare than rent just to maintain their living situation…

seems like we’re already there

stop letting them out to eat the wildlife.

it’ll be healthier for the animal and ecosystem.

Wouldn’t it be hilarious if it’s separate SKU + monthly subscription?

it’s honestly what I expect from R* at this point. maximize the take from the rubes dumb enough to pay it.

I wonder if they’re going to charge a separate SKU for multiplayer…

exactly. there may be genuine improvements Wikipedia could make, but as long as there’s a rabid pack of chuds making demands that change happen, I’ll support Wiki taking it slowly and deliberately. Anything that pisses off those fuckwits has to be good for humanity.

They have more to share than the oranges!

well yeah, there’s only like 3 brain cells in the entire orange cat population, so…

sure thing sweetie. have your juicebox and see if you can formulate a better retort you fucking tourist - been here YEARS longer than you have.

this is the shit you stan for, go suck musk and zuck’s LLMs

Call me back once

get fucked, I wouldn’t waste a nickel calling your ignorant ass. you think roided up chatbots are actual AI. And you have yet to explain the great accomplishments this shitware has produced, aside from driving up the costs of all computing components, undressing little kids, talking teens into suicide, and being so fuckin cringe that only the most desperate, sad souls will stan for it.

like you.

that’s doing good?

stable diffusion is garbage. if there were any great accomplishments by this stuff they’d be waving it in our faces 24/7 and it simply isn’t there.

and people like you, who conflate LLMs and AI aren’t doing us any favors. Call me back when cringely’s non-hallucination tech is working.

libertated, bwahaha, sure thing bud

I love black cats. I think they all share the same brain cells on some kind of time share tho.

I could buy this premise except:

where’s all the small mom and pop AI that’s doing good? where’s ANY AI that’s doing good?

seems to me the tech is beholden to those shits because they have the moral depravity to use it in all the ways it’s damaging our society (fucking up developers, fucking up kids, undressing innocent people, talking them into suicide or helping them plan violence - ALL REAL WORLD EXAMPLES) - where as anyone else building this tech would stop and ask: why are we building this, what possible good could come of it?

AI too. The power to build out all those datacenters isn’t coming from new generation unless it’s methane belching shit like X’s colossus and that’s just offsetting the shitty garbage into the atmosphere instead of your power bill. And Trump is very much neck deep in AI, crypto and all the attendant bubble garbage.

True. I love a lot of fruity and lambics too. We used to have Pyramid brewery here, they made an AMAZING apricot ale that I miss dearly

it’s so good.

get a wide hinge and some epoxy and you got a DS!

so unscrew it. why is this such a huge problem?
