Data centers existing makes sense, but this specific aggressive AI data center buildout (with special-purpose hardware) doesn't: the two AI companies you mentioned, OpenAI and Anthropic, aren't making a profit, and they don't appear to have a viable path to one. OpenAI claims it'll be wildly profitable in just a few years, but they don't go into how.

The problem with well-coded malware is it won't execute unless it thinks it's not being watched. And based on everything else in this article, it sounds like you'd also be opening your computer up to other parties exploiting security holes in the process.
So a separate computer might work, but it would have to stay separate.
As long as you don't care if the summaries and analyses are wrong!
Hey does everybody remember when OpenAI killed Sora after a few months, allegedly to focus on their core product?
Seems OpenAI forgot that commitment. Wouldn't be the first commitment they forgot.
Part of your monthly fee goes to purchasing their AI services. That's not optional.
I'm concerned about in-system bloat because I read the linked article.
Rather, it’s more of an honesty bump. Components that make up the distro – the GNOME desktop and extensions, modern web browsers (and the sites we load in them) and the kinds of apps we use (and keep running) whilst multitasking are more demanding.
The desktop itself isn't the only reason that you need more RAM, but it's definitely one of them.
Nasty stuff I don't want on my computer either. As an amateur, was really hoping the cracks would remove it, not circumvent it...
For Macs with 8GB RAM? Yes.
For Windows? It's way worse in my experience, even with debloat scripts, without opening a single thing.
This crack sounds too scary to use. Impressive, but scary.
As usual for any DRM company or publisher, Irdeto also claimed that downloading games with the bypass is a security concern, but this time around, the company has a valid point.
Using the hypervisor bypass, even in its latest incarnation, requires users to... [install] a community-made hypervisor (HV) with Windows running on top of it. This HV fakes responses to the checks that Denuvo makes, and runs with higher permissions... than the operating system itself and has full, nearly untraceable access to hardware and software.
This is pretty much just a rehash of the paper put out by Google Quantum AI. Not quite "CEO says a thing" journalism but uncomfortably close.
I wish GPUs in AI data centers (or worse, the ones purchased and not installed yet) were more general-purpose than they appear to be. That's the part that makes them AI data centers: the optimized hardware.
I do agree things are complex. And I like reading about the intricacies of that complexity. The overall picture is still a pretty bad one, though.
