I think they were trying to say that the "new" model can create a standard that can compete.
And considering how peoples standards for everything (including standards for standards) are dropping, this might actually be happening.

    Surely the best and most secure system is one with multiple levels of redundancy? Spreading RAM over a large area means that there is no one single point of failure / single target to attack. Everyone having their own AI would be the best end goal (assuming the technology ever actually starts to provide dividends).

    i don't think it's worth making our present worse as it is now for a hypothetical future utopia, even if the chances were quite high (they're not).

    People and the environment are suffering now because of big tech's incessant rush for an AI singularity, expensive ram is only a small thing on a huge pile of grievances.

    I am new, so be gentle? But is any part of his sentiment correct? From a societal change and/or national security for AGI development perspective the more RAM/data centers the quicker he achieves these goals which in his mind will up end computing and the human relation to computing. While yes I want to game, program, and use my own internet machine the faster we reach the tipping point he has envisioned the sooner none of that will matter.

    The question is whether that goal is achievable. And the reason he has been lambasted is because most folks who k ow what's what, do not think it is nearly as easy or achievable as he does.

    cute, and i love the sentiment, but unless it can actually waste sam altman's money i'm not interested.

    he has changed his user name on twitter to "ram altman". he does not care about the jokes.
