This is like an oil company saying you will need more oil.

it's funny because I can run a coral TPU on 4gb that can identify obstacles in live streams.

I'm a fucking genius for figuring it out. make me the CTO of Micron and I will share my knowledge.

The RAM cartel says things need to use more RAM. ...k

I literally don't want self driving cars. Fucking stop.

What the hell does the President of France know about RAM!? /s

Ah, yes, the ol' "X needs 300 of whatever it is I sell" gambit.

This is not credible. A self promoting stock pump and dump PR. Vision AI models are smaller than text models. They do need fast/faster GPUs, but less memory. Very narrow purposed AI/Neural Network models need less memory because the memory is more about storing facts than logic/reasoning capability. LLM breakthroughs in benchmark score/GB are currently having more gains by smaller models than frontier largest models. 32gb is a reasonable ceiling for memory requirement. Robots can swap in task specific AI models as well.

Comma AI can do it with far far less.

Is their ram going to become the new catalytic converters

Nah, it just needs a team of Indian guys to step in whenever the collision alarms go off.

Didn’t Musk promise like a decade ago that Tesla self driving would run fine on their “hardware v2” computer, then a few years later that it would require v3, and then v4 before he finally stopped making such promises?

Whoever at micron that said this is obviously some novel kind of idiot.

Bullshit.

I imagine pople stealing RAM from cars.

"You know that thing we sell? Buy a shitload of it."

Jesus. People are still talking about self-driving cars?

Each will also need a portable nuclear reactor and a swimming pool filled with the blood of innocents and ice cubes made out of children's tears, for cooling purposes.

No no no. See, this is why AI is so fucked up. It doesn't matter if it's human or driverless. Cars aren't supposed to RAM anything!!!

I'm reading that headline as: Major electronics company explains why self driving cars and home robots will be unaffordable.

Obviously a company that makes RAM will say RAM is important, what else would we expect?

I'd love to know what Waymo vehicles have though.

Shovel vendor forecasts massive uptick in hole digging.

We went to the moon with Kbs and now cars need Gbs?

They think that makes them sound smart and important.

It actually makes them sound incompetent.
