Why are there people even defending this piece of shit? He is a billionaire, just like all the others, and he is actively ruining society. He does not give two shits about the people. He is a sociopathic egocentric piece of shit. Just like all the others.

He artificially created the RAM and GPU crisis. He is part of the reason for the state of society today. May he forever suffer.

May the universe hear my prayers and kill this piece of shit human being.

    Huang admitted in August that major cloud providers are moving away from Nvidia in favor of in-house chips, leaving Nvidia staring down a massive oversupply of prepaid TSMC silicon and memory that was “coming at him like an ‘avalanche’”.

    I’ve been claiming this RAM shortage could end very suddenly, because bankruptcies could void most 3 year advance orders in a matter of days.
    This kind of proves it if true. It doesn’t even have to be bankruptcies!!

    My guess is that we will have cheap RAM already next year. 😀

      I just want some HDDs for my server, that’s all. Is that too much to ask? They’re fire now. $300 for a 4tb HDD? That’s a crime.

      Unlikely because ram has been retooled for hbm server gpus. It will be another year before it’s back to ddr5.

        Hard to say how much of the demand induced price increases are based on anticipated chips for future purchase under multi-year contracts that may simply evaporate. Often prices are based on future predictions, not here-and-now supply ane demand.

        DDR5 demand is part of it, not all the RAM shortage is HBM on the GPU. Those server boards have massive amounts of DDR5 too.

      The chips made for data centers aren’t consumer grade. I doubt there will be a sudden decrease in RAM prices even with a few bankruptcies.

          Because sam is an idiot,but he probably is talking about future ram. Insteadof the basic componemts going towards future personal ram, he wants everythong diverted to the cloud.

        That’s not the point. The problem is that these giant AI datacenter buyers have signed contracts promising to reserve all of the chip foundries’ future production for however many years. The chips causing this “shortage” for the most part aren’t even made yet.

      The only thing more exciting than prices correcting is having cheap ram subsidized by Nvidia shareholders.

      And without much complications to the “market”. Since the 3 yrs supply they “bought” in advance was never paid for. Find a way to void the contracts and start making stuff people actually want to buy. It’s not like nvidia is going to actually pay them at this point. E:typo

    Steve from Gamers Nexus has been screaming from the roof tops for a couple of years now, but all the “mainstream news outlets” that are supposed to be for the people, ignored him and kept praising goldfish-face Jensen and made him look like a god with his ugly-ass leather jacket.

    We all saw it from the very beginning. It’s all about the short term gains and to make those graphs point upwards. It doesn’t matter the means and the consequences of that, just make sure they go up. That’s it. Fuck you and me average fucks who just want to buy 2TB of storage for their pc or a fucking 32GB of RAM. Y’all in the West seriously need to bring back guillotines and public execution.

      Wouldn’t help—there’s no deterrent effect, because people like this have too much ego to even consider that they might be caught. We need to start catching them before they make a mess.

      There’s your problem. If you start with a false premise, all your subsequent logic is invalid.

      I’m trying to think of anywhere in the non-West that has guillotines or public executions, that I’d want to emulate as a good policy model.

      …

      Nope, nowhere comes to mind.

      then you should probably stop fucking him.

      Fun fact:

      Zimbardo refused to stop the Standford Prison Experiment when parents threatened to go to police, and even after some staged a prison break out after Zimnardo gaslit them into thinking it would be illegal for their son to leave the fake jail.

      The only reason it stopped, is one of his grad students he was fucking at the time flat out said “this is horrible, so I’m not going to fuck you until it’s over”…

      Zimbardo ended the experiment by the next night.

    It makes sense that general purpose hardware would just be a stopgap for data centers who need to run one very specific workload like LLM prefill at the lowest cost possible. Nvidia’s exact target market who want general purpose hardware for a variety of tasks like running games, Blender, video editors, and some ML models now can’t afford it. Not to worry, though. Even if a B200 sucks at prefill compared to purpose-built hardware, I’m sure a lot of us would happily buy one or two for like $100 each.
