It's kinda funny how we once in internet culture had "lmgtfy" links because people weren't just searching google instead of asking questions. But now people are vomiting chatgpt responses instead of linking to chatgpt.

More specifically, it's OpenAI quietly contracting away 40% of global DRAM capacity, only to build wafers of memory and shove it in a warehouse. https://www.mooreslawisdead.com/post/sam-altman-s-dirty-dram...
