"To give you a sense of how memory hungry AI is, a single 72-GPU GB300 NVL72 AI server has over 20 terabytes of high-bandwidth memory (used almost exclusively in GPUs and other AI chips), and 17 terabytes of the LPDDR5X RAM used in mobile devices, and a gigawatt data center has thousands of those NVL72 servers (or something similar)."

"However 'useful' AI coding tools may be — and it’s genuinely hard to tell! — is immaterial to the larger point that they’re very, very, very expensive to use, that most of those costs are either hidden from the user or subsidized by employers, and that despite all the fucking noise, they are yet to substantively replace or even enhance human beings outside of the loudest and most annoying people on Twitter.
