Altman's Infinite GPU Shopping List

Description

A screenshot of an X/Twitter thread shows Sam Altman, verified as @sama, posting "need more gpus" at "2:56 PM · 2/9/24 From Earth" with "61K Views," "56 Reposts," "26 Quotes," "965 Likes," and "23 Bookmarks." Beneath it, Quinn Chasan asks, "How many GPUs can 7T buy?" and Altman replies, "probably a lot of fucking gpus idk why?" with visible engagement counts including 106 replies, 130 reposts, 1.2K likes, and 59K views. The sibling caption frames it against news that Altman was reportedly seeking up to roughly $7 trillion for AI chip manufacturing, making the casual "need more gpus" post read like a deadpan capital-expenditure request. The technical context is the AI industry's dependence on scarce accelerator supply, data-center capacity, and custom silicon economics.

      Sure if you have the advantage of starting from ground and learning from other’s mistakes. (Which is completely free)

      what's the top-3 chatGPT-like FOSS AIs that can run on a PC?

          Claiming that the use of multiple parenthesis is racist is an act of racism by itself, regarding many computer languages and sciences as well. Don't be such a LISP-phobic!

          1. @RiedleroD 2y

            in that case it was very clearly used in an antisemitic context

  8. @purplesyringa 2y

    yeah that's not good

  9. @mercuriallyVirtuous 2y

    Consider robloxing yourself

  12. @purplesyringa 2y

    no, i mean being racist is not good...
