Can't wait!

I'm worried their operating costs are higher than they admit. They keep dumbing down the AI to make it use less energy. Right now it's a free product that uses a crazy high amount of electricity. They don't seem all that close to profitability.

Why do people care about powerful GPUs? Just use whatever works.

So you're waiting for the AI bubble to burst because you can't wait to run all the cool new AI models?

Gaming aside, powerful GPUs are useful for a lot of work like 3D graphics, video editing, neural networks, and a lot of stuff i don't know about

Some things like vr also just barely work without a powerful GPU

I have a 3060 but with the sheer number of pixels that my reverb g2 has its really not enough

Yea, the underlying tech is what interests me and I have a few potential use cases. Use cases that I would never entrust a random company with. For example, the concept of MS recall is cool, I'd never trust Microshits implementation though.

As little downtime as possible is actually better than having more downtime, as the major problems come from heating/cooling cycles

Lol no, I mean it would be a bubble if it didn't provide anything useful, or transformative, but that's far from the truth.

Like it or not, even LLMs have been found to help in health treatments, mental support , workplace efficiency and so on

AI is here to stay, it's basically the next industrial revolution

That's the problem. If the use case is super cool, and 99% of people have no knowledge (or motivation) to set it up for themselves, the online services will keep existing, and the bubble won't really burst.

Even if some single companies fail (and they will, there some truly horrendous ideas getting funding), the big players will buy the GPUs wholesale before they hit ebay.

AI is in it's "Wright Flyer" stage, just as people in the twenties would have found it hard to comprehend commercialised flight or a man on the moon, people struggle to imagine the future of AI.

AI is the very worse it's going to be today, in the grand scheme of things, it's only going to get better.
