Thinking a bit, ORBITAL ai makes little to no sense, nowhere to dump your heat, your gpus are going to be slag or only operate part of the time. But what if he put them on the moon? the lag time is what ~1.2s? That seems like an amount of time that a current AI query can take and still seem reasonable.
Not that I think it's anything but him allowing some investors to cash out when spacex goes public. Hell didn't he just shift 2billion from tesla to xai?
At the end of the day he will never see whatever bullshit he's peddling in the media about this sale his drug habit is going to kill him before then.
- reverius42 9mo agoDoes the moon offer much heat dissipation potential vs. orbit? The lunar surface seems like an almost-as-harsh environment.
- reverius42 9mo agoAlso 1.2 seconds is like ridiculously long, unacceptable latency.
- sleepybrett 9mo agoMy contention is that for large ai query, it's not that unacceptable.
- sleepybrett 9mo agoThere is a whole fucking moon you can embed heatsinks into.
- reverius42 9mo agoThat's a good point, the rock you're sitting on is basically a giant heat sink.
