A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Once dead internet finishes manifesting, it'll be simply bots shilling & scamming themselves. The data centers will cease to feed the greedy pigs and will be left for the rats. However, the product will have no time to rejoice for we will already have become addicted to the next big thing.
And by "rats," you mean me. Me and my crowbar are ready and waiting to get our hands on a bunch of abandoned server hardware, especially those racks and racks of hard drives.
Think of how much pirated anime you could fit a couple of those arrays!
I work in one of those AI data centers. Remarkably little storage. And the servers are astonishingly specialized for the job. Not to mention power hungry. I'd much rather have a gen10 Proliant. Or a few NUCs and a qnap.
They really don't need storage except for the models and training data right? And most of that isnt theirs to begin with so why store it?
