"“Back when I had a job I never would’ve had the free time to organize an unruly rabble and march towards the beach house of (Open AI CEO) Sam Altman. But now I’m getting so much more violent retribution accomplished in a day.”"

The great license-washing has begun

The promise and the reality:

The story of the Loughton supercomputer is an insight into the dizzying ambitions for artificial intelligence as an economic powerhouse, in the UK and beyond – but also how those hopes can dissolve into a less exciting reality.

The $17.5bn investment represents a plan, by a UK company, to buy chips made in Taiwan by a US company, put them in a building in Loughton, and rent them to another US tech company.

Asked about how the site would create 750 jobs, Nscale could not say how this figure had been calculated.

Again and again, @davidgerard, Ed Zitron and others have highlighted that many of these loudly trumpeted "commitments" and "contracts" to invest billions are nothing more than hype to inflate the AI balloon. Here's another shabby example. Who's behind it? Former crypto bros, of course.

which is why there is no hoarding of all the computers and RAM for data centers that don’t even exist. what we are witnessing is a mafia-type collusion to remove from commercial circulation all the computational power people need to continue about their daily digital lives without paying rents to IP-thieving techbro clouds.

THERE IS NO RAM SHORTAGE.

THERE IS A BIG TECH COLLUSION TO CREATE A PC TECH SHORTAGE

memory is just the beginning. techbros are out to kill the PC market
