We plan to decrease operational costs for our AI model by building custom servers that are immune to cosmic radiation, then spending trillions of dollars launching them into space. Yes, our CFO did tech themselves math using ChatGPT, why do you ask?
@malwaretech you laugh but bit flips are no laughing matter! imagine youre using your ai and suddenly it does something totally unexpected for reasons no one is able to diagnose?
Used to work for a global ISP in the early 2000s. Sun had released a new line of mid-range servers (e250, e450, etc.). They had significant issues with random panic() reboots caused by ECC memory-errors. Sun never could figure out the problem, citing the possibility that the parity errors were coming from cosmic rays. Eventually, they issued a patch …to log the errors rather than act on them.
