Dude from NVIDIA: "please stop talking bad about AI. It's hurting my feelings."

Argh. I was hoping to upgrade my server storage later this year...

[–] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah… in November I was looking at the exos to get 4 or 5 on serverpartdeals, it was around 330, but I wanted to wait until January. Well last I checked they were 430 and I decided I could wait until next year ugh

I have a NAS with four 8TB Western Digital Red drives that are getting up there in age. I have been looking for a good deal to upgrade then with higher capacity drives for the last few years. Now I’m thinking when they fail I’ll probably have to buy lower capacity drives and be more picky with what data I keep around.

Maybe I’ll look into burning Blu-rays and CDs. I’m definitely not going back to cloud storage.

Why isn't there a companies just for the consumer market?

[–] ksh@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Because AI is a dual use technology which can broker massive amounts of information to governments.

Because if they can make for consumers, then there's a shit ton of investor money waiting for some tech bro to turn it into 'AI'.

The tech industry companies are playing with nigh unlimited house money, consumers can't compete.

Damn. 2/8 drives in my array have died. I was going to replace them, but at this price point I might just delete some porn instead.

Or buy cloud storage.
