@rattypumpkin.bsky.socialThe Bank of Nvidia is not only bankrolling the Super Intelligence bubble, but also forcing co-conspirators to keep buying Nvidia hardware if they want to keep playing at the scam in the hope that they'll be the ones to make it big. This is why we plebs cannot buy RAM and storage.
Show PostOpenSI already tried this with injecting ads, something they swore they'd never do. Question is, how many people would pay the full price of inference and diffusing their fresh AI slop? Hint: the current monthly plans cover maybe 10-20% of the true costs. How much would you pay per month?
Show PostThis is the trap that Super Intelligence chatbots and related services find themselves in. They have been giving away copious amounts of slop away for free*, but now they have to start charging cattl^Wcustomers to pay off their debt. * They harvested all your personal info, natch.
Show PostI saw the example used of a fast food place that starts giving away food for free, which does indeed create an immense amount of demand, something which can then be scaled up to infinity given enough investor loans. Of course, you have to start asking money at some point.
Show PostUrge to throw heavy objects at people who seriously say things like 'increasing AI demand' keeps rising, especially purported investors who really should know better. You can create a lot of 'demand' if you start giving things away for free, but will you ever recoup enough money to pay off loans?
