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.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

This means price will go down... Right? It can't possibly only go up, it has to go down when the RAM decreases right?
I want to get off the eternally increasing price ride please. Mr. Bones I want to get off!
No, because that 4gb is now the price of the 8 or 12 now. My only thought on this is how will they explain the performance drop thats inevitable when cutting it that low. My phone is about to be 4 years old and it has 12gb, it generally consumes 8gb without anything extra running. I know RAM scales, but getting it to low will mean sacrifices in performance.
You speak truth, its painful but true.
