    In fairness, he says the remarks were taken out of context, posted “i want you to have so much ram”, and briefly went by Ram Altman on X. That makes this script a daily progress report.

    Umm I read/watched the context and somehow the message does not change. Am I missing something?
    Do I hallucinate or does he?

    Look how much money is wasted in billionaires. It would be far more useful with poor people who would actually use the money instead of hoarding it like dragons.

      for ages the stories have battled over the ultimate purpose of humanity.

      Is not the purpose, to meet the needs of all people while sustaining the environment that gives us this life?

    Hi Sam,

    I hear RAM is hard to come by these days, so it feels a bit rude to be sitting on 248.1 GiB of it. Total installed: 251.7 GiB. It’s not for sale, I just like knowing it’s there.

    Stay allocated, A concerned RAM owner

    Surely if he needs RAM so badly he’d accept donations, right?

    Is there anywhere he accepts large files? Because surely there’s some generous souls who would upload RAM to help him out

    cute, and i love the sentiment, but unless it can actually waste sam altman’s money i’m not interested.

    he has changed his user name on twitter to “ram altman”. he does not care about the jokes.

      Ah yes, the cope by pretending to play along. Like PirateSoftware’s profile picture once being his own parody, which is a thing I also learned from others reporting on it as I don’t use Xitter.

    I am new, so be gentle? But is any part of his sentiment correct? From a societal change and/or national security for AGI development perspective the more RAM/data centers the quicker he achieves these goals which in his mind will up end computing and the human relation to computing. While yes I want to game, program, and use my own internet machine the faster we reach the tipping point he has envisioned the sooner none of that will matter.

    The question is whether that goal is achievable. And the reason he has been lambasted is because most folks who k ow what’s what, do not think it is nearly as easy or achievable as he does.

      Surely the best and most secure system is one with multiple levels of redundancy? Spreading RAM over a large area means that there is no one single point of failure / single target to attack. Everyone having their own AI would be the best end goal (assuming the technology ever actually starts to provide dividends).

      Why would society allow or help this psychopath achieve his stupid goals? I want a Disneyland in my backyard, that goal is achievable, I deserve everyone’s money.
