Sam Altman Says Personal DRAM Is a Waste
Original: Sam Altman Thinks You're Wasting DRAM
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has argued that it is wasteful for individuals to hold large amounts of the world's limited DRAM supply in personal devices, contending that memory should instead be concentrated in datacentres. The remark has drawn criticism and debate among technologists, many of whom see it as self-interested reasoning that favors AI infrastructure buildout over consumer computing.
Why now: Altman's suggestion that consumer memory should be redirected to datacentres strikes readers as self-serving amid the AI industry's hunger for hardware.
