this entire RAM shortage and energy crisis could've been avoided by writing/rewriting all this AI hubbub in C/C++ instead of Python, you know.

>he thinks all those complex calculations really happens on the Python side
Lol, lmao even!
Just look at any math lib in Python and you will see C++ everywhere. The heavy lifting is being done by C++. Python is just the scripting language to prompt C code.
Also, just by saying C/C++ like if it were the same thing, I know right away that you have no idea what you're talking about.

This shit is already esoteric as fuck to the people who supposedly know what they're doing, I can only imagine how much worse it would be without writing it in what is basically plain English.

it's tensors... barely graduate math

>tfw TensorFlow lost
Python scripts are so full of accidental sync point footguns that could have been elegantly sidestepped. When you profile them it looks like the CPU is battling the GPU in olympic level pingpong
>>
>>107689201
Nah, I prefer solving systems of non-linear partial differential equations in Hilbert spaces on chalkboards over implementing and optimizing some rudimentary tensor algorithms in constrained character grid arrays.
Let the world burn, shit coders are gonna fuck everything up anyways

Programmers like writing code. They don't like rigid having to encode their program in some rigid structure. Imperative always wins against declarative for things that aren't UI.

yeah no shit now go smoke some meth and endure the suffering of building something good

clearly we need to go back to assembly

Why can't we just use SSD as ram instead.

You can either make things or you can spend time criticizing others for how they made something. One is much healthier for you.

Python is just a glue of a bunch of C++ programs.
It is WAY too slow to do any sort of processing.
You literally can't write an NES emulator on it that runs in realtime on a modern machine without using some fancy weird variations

This problem was long in the making. The programming languages we're using for the majority of web services are not memory efficient. Go is a good step, but it still uses more memory than C++/Rust.
>>
>>107689077
> C/C++ like if it were the same thing
They basically are. Semantically they are pretty much the same language. C++ just has a bunch of syntactic sugar on top.
>>
>>107689566
Python is a scripting language
>>107689627
C++ is for indians.
>>
>>107689627
I hate to be the acktually guy, but they really aren't. They only are because your C compiler is also your C++ compiler so a lot of incestuous behavior just happens naturally. I will give you that C++ tries to align with C on stuff like struct initializers (still not perfect) and C11 basically just copies the C++ memory model, so ya.

Either way both languages are shit and OP is retarded.

>>107689544
Nesticle can run even on a 386DX (as long it has zero wait states).
But python is just fucking slow.
>>
>>107689032
Nope. Try again
>>
So, is OpenAI actually running python in those datacenters? Surely not, right? RIGHT?
>>
>>107689328
part of being a swe is critizing dogshit solutions and telling the person 'lmao no' to their commit request.
