Sorry Sam, My RAM Isn't Going Anywhere! :-X

Sam Altman says RAM belongs in AI data centers, and having RAM sitting in our home PCs is a waste of resources! Oh no, I'm fucking terrified, someone please save me!

Btw, I own a 32GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 RAM! Sorry Sam!

At least we know what the world will be like if Open AI wins the race.  No more personal computing - everything will be streamed.

Then the world will be a pretty boring place. No more custom PCs, or choosing your favorite specs, buying those parts, assembling everything by hand, and finally firing up the thing that made you feel good/alive. Man, there is no fun without customizing a PC! You have also done that right?

I can't just stop laughing, it's in trend right now, lol.

Greedy Sam steals our RAMs...

I'm waiting for this AI craze to end so that I'll afford to get myself a few mining ring, a local AI rig and a gaming PC.

Interesting point.   When the AI crash happens, video cards will also crash - hard.   There will be such a large number of powerful cards being dumped all at once that manufacturers won't be able to sell their stock at their normal price.   My computer is 7 years old, but still works great - I plan for the future.

I'm wondering what I'm supposed to do with all these old PCs I have piling up with outdated hardware...  I have a basket full of DDR3 ram that I guess I'm just going to throw away?  I have lots of old motherboards and CPUs...  The hard drives I destroy and the GPUs are easy enough to sell...  What do people do with their old cables, cases, motherboards, ram, etc.?  I feel like the worst person ever throwing all this stuff in the trash, but I'm not going to deal with eBay to sell a bunch of outdated stuff that will end up with me making a few cents per hour for my effort...
