Haha. I believe the AMD Instinct / Nvidia Datacentre GPUs aren’t that great for gaming.

Assuming a large decline in demand for AI compute, what would be the use cases for renting out older AI compute hardware on the cloud? Where would the demand come from? Prices would also go down with a decrease in demand.

I use the “udm=14” method to remove the AI/Spam results at the beginning of search result. While it doesn’t address the overall decline in search quality, I find it is a much better experience.

This is really the of stuff dystopian scifi.

A somewhat cliched saying comes to my mind when reading this article.

“The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.” [1]

Hopefully, there will eventually be pushback against this techno-feudalism and oligarchy. For what it’s worth this seems to always happen in history. Ruling elites (in our case oligarchs and their promoters; the media, economists, politicians) consolidate their power and start to become disconnected from reality.

As a side note, it’s funny that AI-generated videos have themes of dystopia and rebellion against the system.

They do way more than that, that’s just the consumer facing stuff.

Beautiful irony to see this coming from Sam “Worldcoin” Altman.

Bonus points, try inputting a prompt into ChatGPT asking whether Sam Altman is an oligarch and his “rescue” of Worldcoin executives in Kenya is an example of oligarch power.

First time I’ve heard of the “Leaky Abstraction” concept, makes a lot of sense. Good metaphor too.
