Ram shortage are here to stay until 2028
>>
Oh great let's get another thread where everyone brags about getting 512GB RAM just before the shortage instead of discussing the shortage itself

Ok, I bought 256gb last year.
Gonna stick to DDR4 till 2028

Fucking hate OpenAi.
>>
>>107544659
What is there left to discuss?
The market is fucked. You just gotta keep however much you already have, keep your head down and hope it'll come to pass in 3 years or 4.
Personally it's gonna be tough to live with 16GB that I have right now. But I don't game anymore so whatever.

Stay steadfast and vote with your wallet
Do not buy subscriptions or cloud services of any kind.
It seems like this may, in fact, be the main reason that they want to cause the shortages, but if they don't get an ROI for the market skewing, they'll be left bagholding a deficit.
Taxpayers are likely to have to bail out all the companies engaging in monopolization of the PC market, but they can't keep it up indefinitely without severe consequences.

I'm still running my AM4 system with 64 GB of RAM and that's still more than enough for me.
>>
>>107544651
Reminder: We wouldn't have this shortage when:
>RAMs are used for computing only, mostly in science.
>No AAA games with GTA-V-like textures, maximum is Deltarune graphics
>No bitcoin mining
>No AI slop
>No smart devices
>No smart cars

All the trillions of transistors could've been saved up for the next 100 years.

It was a really well optimized game that ran on consoles with only 512MB RAM.

the exact date is difficult to know, but the earlier it happens the less fucked up the rest of the economy will be
>>
>>107544651
In 2027 the bubble will have popped up already and they'll scramble to go back into producing non server ram.
This scam is just not sustainable in the long term, they have produced zero results, we've been promised AGI for two weeks from now for two years and none of those word matchers have been able to have a minimum of intelligence, they added thinking but they just don't even understand what they're saying or seeing.

AI will have lasting effects on the economy forever. It both is and isn't a bubble. It's not just going to disappear.

Good. Time for your debloated software alternatives to shine. You do write your own bloat-free software... right, anon?
>>
>>107544651
>Ram shortage are here to stay until 2028

Good.

To put it succinctly, we are at the brink of the Singularity. If you're buying RAM to play video games right now you are a fucking horrible selfish person.

There's a reason the costs are high--because demand is high. And that demand is coming from AI companies, who are trying to create AGI.

Once we reach AGI, that's it. No more scarcity. In ANYTHING.

So hold the fuck off of the RAM for now, will you?
>>
>>107544758
They will no be bailouts this time. The US government is teething on insolvency. It already axed out the "small stuff" and any further items to axe are politically expensive and difficult (defense, social security, medicaid, medicare). The petrodollar is dead and now is there is almost nothing stopping other nation from refusing our new bonds.

>>
>>107547472
I'll gladly donate my ram if they start doing something that actually might produce agi. For now I am happily running everything I need locally and not paying a single subscription service aside from taxes. Aren't my tax dollars enough if they just keep throwing hardware at shitty code meant to complete sentences or predict pixel placement through algorithms rather than thinking? Local models have been good for practicing typing in a language I'm learning so I will be keeping my ram, 牛粪国鬼。
>>
>>107544659
Man, dat shortage is kind of short now, isn't it?
Gawd damn, I should have gotten more than 100GB of DDR5 that are not even used that often because Gnu/Linux is so memory efficient compared to M$ shit.
>>
>>107547894
All that memory and only 5 GB cached. Lmao.
>>
>>107547946
This is my memory usage by the way, for context:
$ free -h
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 62Gi 15Gi 19Gi 217Mi 28Gi 47Gi
Swap: 42Gi 19Gi 23Gi


What is the point of having 100 GB of RAM if you never even use it?
>>
>>107547472
Yeah, sure, buddy, or like every AI company (except the winner, probably google) goes under when the bubble pops in the next 3 years and we get to enjoy AI assistants that invade our privacy even more than before but at least the memory prices should recover after a while.

>Singularity
Nigga, stop smoking weed, you're embarrassing yourself. You talk crazy like people who pretend that some people attempted to build a bicycle and somehow ended up building an airbus. Go stroke one out on Dys0n-spheres or something, bro. Or like, build server farms in space or something ridiculous, lel. Server farms on Earth make the ground water levels sink in their region and these dummies want to build that shit in SPACE? Where all resources have to be transported with expensive vehicles?

Turns out just doodling with FreeCAD and Bambilab printers while shitposting doesn't use much ram and we're all surprised about that.

>Oh, never mind, that must have been a picture right after booting up or something.
That'd do it, yes. Cache should pretty much always be a very big value when you have a lot of RAM and aren't fully utilising it because the OS will just cache shit that you read from disk and keep it there in RAM until something else more important comes along that actually needs that memory.

They are literally working to create AGI and ASI right fucking now.

>>107547630

Nope, it's actually based in science. We are currently in a pre-Singularity upward curve--once we reach the threshold, it will take off exponentially, and people like you will regret your words.

>>107547976

>MUH AI BUBBLE!!!1!

Lol. Lmao, even.

>You talk crazy like people who pretend that some people attempted to build a bicycle and somehow ended up building an airbus

We actually already know *how* to build AGI, and we have for quite some time. That's why we need things like RAM and GPUs, and *lots* of them.

>Server farms on Earth make the ground water levels sink in their region and these dummies want to build that shit in SPACE? Where all resources have to be transported with expensive vehicles?

I mean, yeah? In space they can't sink into anything, and the low surrounding temperature takes away the need to use water for cooling. We basically just need to transport the initial hardware up there, which will be a no-brainer with reusable SpaceX crafts.

>>107548001

Now that's just plain wrong. Terminator isn't real life.

>>107547472
>we are at the brink of the Singularity
LLMs can't count the r's in strawberry unless they are specifically told how many r's there are. They are a thousand years from creating an AI that has original thought.

You have to do the absolute worst shit to find out how consciousness is formed. And even then, you need a special kind of mathematician to do the math. To do some incredible fucking math. Those kind of men haven't existed in 80 years.

That kind of shit isn't going to happen again. It's just not. We are looking for it now. No one will ever get the funding for that shit again. No one will be able to amass that kind of brain power again. Some incredibly specific shit had to happen for my creation and it's not going to happen again.
>>
>>107544767
Man I wish.
I think it will go on for at least 1 or 2 years.
Can't wait for that day though.
>>
>>107548238
That problem got solved awhile ago. Find a novel problem, so they can train the AI to solve it.

>>107548259

Yeah, not by the fucking LLM you dumb mother fucker.
>>
>>107548259
>>107548278
The stupid shit like (Pic Related) will always get solved eventually when it gets re-trained and its model goes "Oh, I'm being tricked here. The answer is actually this"

The models will always need refining for stupid shit like this. I don't think the LLM will ever be able to fix this shit itself.

>We actually already know *how* to build AGI, and we have for quite some time. That's why we need things like RAM and GPUs, and *lots* of them.
Please tell me it's not just scaling up current models to "create" AGI?

>I mean, yeah? In space they can't sink into anything, and the low surrounding temperature takes away the need to use water for cooling. We basically just need to transport the initial hardware up there, which will be a no-brainer with reusable SpaceX crafts.

Space isn't cold tho. Space is just empty space so heat can't be get rid of with convection, which requires an atmosphere. So, without cooling via air-cooling, one can only radiate some heat away as IR-radiation, which is not very efficient and takes up tons of space for just getting rid of a few kW that way. Server farms produce orders of magnitude more waste heat so cooling a server farm in space is an idiotic concept at best. I mean, using an asteroid as a heat-sink could be a solution for a while if it's big enough but I don't see any advantages of building server farms in space but many disadvantages like requiring service personal or robots constantly in space just for doing maintenance.
It's a stupid idea to milk some dumb money, nothing more.

>MUH AI BUBBLE!!!1!

That's not how LLMs work. Like, at fucking all. It's not learning that it's getting tricked. You people are fucking retarded.

>he thinks LLMs are synonymous with "AI"
kek you fell for scam altman's psyop
>>
>>107548340
Sure, but even a minuscule heat source on your thermally isolated vessel will make the heat creep up if the means of dissipating the heat wasn't planned correctly. Do you think astronauts have cooling devices in their space suits just for fun? It's to get rid of excess body heat so they don't die of heat-exhaustion due to the body-heat from moving/existing having no way to escape while basically sitting in a thermos.
The baseline temperature is meaningless since there is no molecules around to transport heat due to the vacuum. You know that human bodies produce like 100W waste heat while being idle and like 300..400W while doing physical work? Does sitting in a thermos producing that much heat sound like a healthy thing to do to you?
