The words of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman sparked a storm. "It's terrible that people have RAM"

In a podcast, OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman suggested that DRAM memory should be centralized in the cloud for efficiency, rather than being held in personal computers. This aligns with OpenAI's needs for substantial memory to support its AI infrastructure, as ChatGPT operates solely in the cloud. The global supply of DRAM is currently limited due to high demand from AI companies, making it harder for consumers to access. This has led to criticism from gamers and tech enthusiasts who argue that personal computers should serve individual needs rather than support corporate AI infrastructure, especially as memory prices rise.
