M1 is finishing it's 6th year of life and going strong ...
- dexterdog 3mo agoHave you been trashing the non-replaceabe SSD with constant AI workloads? Do you have any idea how much electricity it uses over it those 4 years?
- pulse7 3mo agoYou cannot wear out an SSD through AI inference alone. LLM weights are only read from the SSD, and read operations do not contribute to SSD wear. SSD wear is primarily caused by write and erase operations.
- kadoban 3mo ago> Have you been trashing the non-replaceabe SSD with constant AI workloads? Your other point is valid, but you're either vastly underestimating how many reads/writes a modern SSD can take or vastly overestimating how much output a typical LLM is capable of.
