    Meanwhile, Amazon is just putting GPUs into warehouses so their competitors don’t get them. WTF.

      Yeah this is about more than llms. They’re done, or want to be done, doing commerce with the plebs, the bottom 90%. Everything is for the top 10% (already make up 50+% of purchases and spending power, that stat is from 2024 so more now) and B2B.

      We get the scraps of the scraps.

      Along with Nvidia (and the RAM manufacturers) requiring people to buy shitloads of components in advance, or they just sell to someone else.

      Don’t worry, they’ll be outdated soon. If you mean AI GPUs that is. Those are obsolete once the new gen is out because there are massive generational improvements (particularly amount and bandwidth of memory which is what matters most)
