    Look how much money is wasted in billionaires. It would be far more useful with poor people who would actually use the money instead of hoarding it like dragons.

      for ages the stories have battled over the ultimate purpose of humanity.

      Is not the purpose, to meet the needs of all people while sustaining the environment that gives us this life?

    Hi Sam,

    I hear RAM is hard to come by these days, so it feels a bit rude to be sitting on 248.1 GiB of it. Total installed: 251.7 GiB. It’s not for sale, I just like knowing it’s there.

    Stay allocated, A concerned RAM owner

    Surely if he needs RAM so badly he’d accept donations, right?

    Is there anywhere he accepts large files? Because surely there’s some generous souls who would upload RAM to help him out

      Might technically fall afoul of anti-spam legislation if you don’t respect unsubscribe requests, though I’m not sure if that’s specifically for commercial email in the US, and it’s not like unsubscribing from one instance of this would do much. Probably easy to filter, though.

    In fairness, he says the remarks were taken out of context, posted “i want you to have so much ram”, and briefly went by Ram Altman on X. That makes this script a daily progress report.

    Umm I read/watched the context and somehow the message does not change. Am I missing something?
    Do I hallucinate or does he?

      He definitely hallucinates, but I think what he might be trying to imply is that if they get more RAM in the data centers it’ll be easier to get more RAM for people and lower the over all cost? Which because of capitalism is obvious bullshit. But also, this is the guy that said AI will bring about the end of the world, so I suspect he wants more RAM to speed up that process.

        What he implied was that in a shortage of RAM, RAM that’s sitting in a PC doing nothing, is useless to most of the world, whereas RAM in a shared resource (data center) gets utilized significantly more. Which is not incorrect. It’s just that 1) personal freedom, 2) why should the shared resource be allocated to a private company
