People here told me that the AI bubble would burst and that I should wait. I’ve already been waiting for two years, and things are only getting worse

And instead of buying RAM at half the price and a graphics card, I waited, and now the prices have gone up 8x.
>>109703865What alternative do you have, other than wait? We're all on the same boat, idiot.
>>109703865Wait for what? If you were too poor to afford computer parts 2 years ago you need to evalutate your finances better and your priorities. The best 'wait' you can do is for a good stock market correction (~20%) and then buy the dip.Otherwise just live your fucking life, if you want/need a new computer just fucking spend the money kid.
>>109703880Buy it now before the prices shoot up even more.
>>109703865waitfags are retarded and poor always have been two years ago was the best time to buy shit with ssd and ram and hdds all being super cheap and a new platform launched with great support and bundles one year ago was the next best time to buy just before everything went to shit when scam altman lied about buying 40% of the world's ram Now you are fucked and you are not paying attention to the news that is saying the market will get worse and guess what it's getting worse and a $45 raspberry pi now costs $300you can keep waiting though hope you have the tech for it there's always ebay but scams have risen there too. Even on retail stores people are getting scammed with ram swapped sticks and fake HDDs waitfags always lose because they'll never buy when the time is right they'll still just wait
>>109703889I'm not buying anything ever again, fuck you.
/biz/ taught me to do the opposite of what pink wojaks say...
There used to be real experts here. Nowadays, there are just faggots/idiots who post cats with snail shells on their backs and moderate this chan. I only have myself to blame for listening to you guys.
>>109703915Well, time to put all my money into the Anthropic and OpenAI IPOs
>>109703865 We're closer to it popping now with China providing better value and equivalent performance. All AI providers are going harder on limits because they can't sustain the expenses much longer. Suno is being sued and capping downloads. Anthropic is being sued. NotebookLM has usage limits now. Everything is getting squeezed more and more.
Bubble bursts don't mean something goes away. They mean the inferior competitors go under en masse and only a few giants are left standing. The '01 dotcom burst didn't kill Amazon or eBay.
what do you want out of an AI bubble "bursting"?You can't ever take my local ai

unironically i'm tempted to put together a machine with an AM2 motherboard i got from someone. prices for DDR2 aren't too bad.
>>109703879Same man I regret not building a computer in 2024. I'm still waiting. I was told to trust the plan and the prices would come down.
>>109703865You need to wait morePatience you must have my young Padawan
>a few hundred dollars is a massive problem for meyou have far bigger problems than no RAM.
>>109703865are you sure? DDR2 and even the newgen DDR3 are pretty cheap bro, dunno what you're tweaking about over there
>>109704405better start buying ddr3 ram and hardware before it really gets worse. good thing there's no good games anymore or a reason to use the modern internet except for pirating and putting it on an xp, 7, and 10 ltsc install
>>109704432frI have a Xeon v3 machine with >1TB of RAM where I dual boot between Windows 7 and TempleOS back at home when I don't go to uniI gave it Titan RTX for GPU and it runs amazingly with every game I want to play and I just love itthe only major cost is the power consumption as it GULPS watts compared to my more mobile PC that I use at uni - i5 gen 11 and rtx 2060 super
>>109704432I was thinking the same thing, the problem is everything is so digitized that you're practically forced to engage with these insidious corporate platforms that have gobbled up the entire web.

>>109703865Everyone with an IQ over 105 realized AI is the most significant development of our lifetimes. Everyone told you the same. But you, and those like you, had to be contrarian and pretend you knew better.
>>109703865I suspect the bubble has peaked. As measured in stock prices, especially tech stock prices. They're regressing or stalled despite massive inflationary pressure in the USD.
>>109703865the last bubble to burst was the housing market back in 08 and it ended lots of livesthey learned to never let bubbles pop anymoree.g. you're an idiot
>>109703865You deserve it for falling for the 16 GiB RAM mene
>>109706230"they" don't care about lives in the slightest and would put as many people into a blender as possible if they were allowed if it made the line go up
