    That can be scaled horizontally and is just a matter of building more data centers.

    At one of my old jobs “just” was considered a bad word

      Ok, remove the just then, the point still stands that it is a solvable problem. We know how to make data centers, it may not be easy or cheap but it’s possible just like we know how to build car factories.

        Yeah and the point is that model improvements so far have meant making huge increases in size, which offsets the datacenters scale out.

        The whole point is that this is futile because we will always be playing catch-up to model sizes, to our ultimate downfall. The tech needs to be smarter not larger. That’s why the whole cloud AI business is shit and not going to work. as anyone with a brain has been saying from the beginning.

        Jesus Christ man, people’s homes are being sized with eminent domain for this shit. It ain’t worth it.
