"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

Sounds like you need more RAM dog
In this economy?
I have 128GB. For my setup specifically, I'm more worried about background CPU/GPU usage causing hitches.
But we are in a RAM apocalypse, so people running games with barely enough RAM/VRAM will be fairly common these days.
If you're ok to reduce the steam client to only a list of your games and sacrifice some features:

TBH I just run GoG or other DRM free games where I can. No launcher needed, no problem.
Nice, my current machine canβt even handle that much, lol
My system works for what I need it for, but I canβt wait to upgrade hardcore once all of the bubble implodes and all of the tech fabs need consumers again.
