Facts.
>>
>>108647285
last part isnt true

the profit is possible assuming customers dont stop paying for the service, especially after all the price hikes as inflation takes hold
>>
>>108647294
Numbers are pretty clear though, if people can't/don't want to pay for AI they just aren't going to use it. The demand to justify the money they are spending just isn't there.
>>
>>108647308
We could just use social security and medicare money to power 80% accurate shoe tie tutorials.
>>
>>108647285
The profit is surveillance as a service.
>>
man what the actual fuck is going with the fonts on that image, it makes me so fucking mad
>>
>>108647294
It is true because they would require either massively increasing their prices or every retard that ever used their service paying for the privilege of doing so
>>
>>108647308
data centers will be used for video models, which will be used to train robots, which will be used to replace wagies
>>
Trying to have AI fully replace human work instead of supplementing it and making it easier for humans to get things done was a mistake.
>>
>>108647523
But that's exactly what AI is doing? Not a single valuable job can be replaced with AI, just mundane tasks that don't need another human, making it easier for the humans actually working to get shit done.
>>
>>108647294
>the profit is possible assuming customers dont stop paying for the service,
first they have to START paying.
>>
>>108647285
Your fuckass picture is AI generated.

Also profits don't matter, the AI data centers aren't being built for consumer AI, that's a smokescreen, they're being built to enslave humanity.
That's also why they're discussing putting them into space, a peasant uprising can bum rush data centers that are on earth.
>>
Why don't they just make more ram?
>>
>>108647285
Why is every line of text in this image a different size?
Did a "AI is making RAM too expensive" person use AI to... put text on an image? Jfc
>>
>>108647651
>Also profits don't matter
I dunno what planet you live on, but we're discussing earth
>>
>>108647659
because you have existing fabs that can only produce so much product even if they run 24/7, they're completely booked out for the next several years, they also know this is a passing fad and if they were to build up more fabs, the demand will go back to normal before they're even done.
>>
>>108647285
why thank you captain obvious, yet again you saved the day.
>>
>>108647294
What exactly will customers be paying with? AI is too expensive to be widely distributed and the only thing they are achieving by selling it as a service is what happens OPs pic: commodities moon and the value of money proggressively sinks until we're back to medieval times where a few elites had access to the full power of iron forging and peasants will just had the bare essentials to work the land. Question is if AI will be as disruptive as iron forging for those in the pursuit of power. Apparently, it is.

This meme is already dated. The previous admin set out on a plan for "green" energy instead of nuclear, and this admin rolled all that back and went back to coal, natural gas and fossil fuels. Two of those three are now being constrained because Jews. The AI economy was dependent on cheap energy. Sam Altman already walked back half the ram he preordered. However, helium is essential to ram production, which is being constrained by Trumps current kike war. Hopefully Iran wins, energy prices continue to rise, we have a inflation Carter admin style, and AI is set back a decade.
>>
>>108647670
What does it take to get cattle like you to wake up? They have the money printer dumbass. Forget about muh means of production. The game is rigged.
>>
>>108647285
That's a convoluted way of saying "it was da joos"
>>
>>108647294
>if everyone in the world just gives me all their money then my profit predictions can come true
>>
>>108647659
because the cartel wanted to raise prices. they don't really give a shit about you, the consumer.

inb4
>no such thing as the RAM cartel!
you can just google it.
>>
>>108647294
open a i guy said they have never been profitable and have no plan to ever be profitable
>>
>>108647294
Nigger.
AI companies are generating pure loses and only stay afloat on handouts from investors ans other tech companies coping that maybe one day this will start making actual profits.
The issue is that AI is pretty much impossible to scale up to the level they all imagine without absorbing literally all funds and resources, which makes it even more improbable that it will ever start making profits.
On top of that general population hates AI and has no use for it.
AI business as it exist today is a dead end with no future. Question is when the lobotomites with money finally start questioning it.>>108647390

>>108647294
this too, these guys are really 4x marking up prices to the point where only companies can afford it but at the same time with these prices why would they
if it becomes so expensive enduser hardware manufactorers (desktop, laptop, phone, smart appliances, consoles) have to outprice consumers to the point no ones gonna buy that then theyre fucking up their own downline and companies with their text editors can afford to stay on old hardware a bit longer too, maybe a small amount of specialized hardware but not enough to feed a strongly fomo driven industry with profitability
literally just sit it out
>but itll take too long for prices to go back down I MUST scratch my fomo itch!
every cunt that breaks will make it last that much longer
>>
>>108647285
This meme is extremely antisemitic, please stop noticing things.
>>
>>108647285
Yup. This is the path of AI. we are all doomed
>>
>>108647308
So, they'll get bailed out and you'll pay sooner or later in taxes*.
You people are forgetting about the time factor.
They'll get billions and economy will be relatively "fine" as long as they don't spend it all at once which they won't since there is nothing to spend on anyway. But still - having so much money stashed away will give them immense power over plebs.

*a simplification - government isn't funded with taxes, it just prints money whenever it needs it.
So, government is "funded" with your everyday activity.

If this scares you don't look at grain futures
>>
>>108647659
The choice is basically:
>Make 1 ram
>sell it for $10,000

or
>make 10 ram
>sell for $100 each
>>
>>108647285
one of the main parts of neoliberalism is rejecting the real parts of the economy and following abstract indicators, forgetting what they are supposed to indicate
so you get imaginary shit over imaginary shit
this has really worked also in the tech world, probably because the tech world is also very abstracted from the material conditions
so you get the tech bro, which is another type of finance bro
>>
>>108651359
why not make two ram and let them reproduce on their own?
>>
>>108647285
What a retarded way to say a large purchase made by a loan
>profits that are mathematically impossible
Sure bro, and since they are "mathematically impossible" the proof? "Start by assuming that no company can make a 10 trillion dollars in a year"
herp derp derp.
>>
>>108647285
wait until you learn how banking works
>>
>>108647308
openrouter and sites like it say 1Q a year
china alone uses 51Q tokens a year
OpenAI/Gemini serve probably 1Q a year
There is plenty of demand.
>>
>>108647294
AI would fall under discretionary spending, ie nonessential, compared to something like non discretionary (groceries/energy/rent) as non discretionary prices continue to rise due to inflation, customers always will continue to cut back from discretionary spending.
>>
>>108651356
The economy is not "fine" currently and will become increasingly not "fine" in the future
Do you live at home?
>>
>>108647659
if you are homeless, buy a home
>>
>>108647870
That's retarded reasoning, they are building new fabs, and if nobody ever spends any hard money there wouldn't be a bubble.
People are making billions selling deepseek tokens right now. It's selling shovels all the way down + billions have been priced out of the traditional PC market for years now even if selling hardware for tokens for apis stops it doesn't mean selling hardware for tokens for consumer hardware doesn't.
>>
>>108647294
I'm sure consumer goods skyrocketing in price will leave people with plenty of extra money to spend on AI
