I built a god rig in 2022, i bought the best 64gb ddr5 4-stick ram kit i could, an nvidia 4090, the best processor i could, and attached it to the best mobo i could.

I spent about 4800.

My pc is now worth about 6500.

This is some crazy ass shit. Never should a pc appreciate in value.

What the hell is going on?????

When you hear people say they hate AI, it's for more reasons than AI slop, energy consumption, and beating the damn term into every product line you can imagine for little to no benefit.

My phone recently offered to summarize a text message for me. I'm talking about SMS, the messaging system that already has a character limit.

Also, when I last checked the weather in my area, there was an AI summary. It was an entire sentence or two, and offered zero additional details over what was already visually indicated by the raincloud icon and the number representing the temperature.

I'm looking forward to installing GrapheneOS when their support for my phone stabilizes.

Your point still stands, but don't forget basic inflation. $4,800 in 2022 is like > $5,300 now.

Maybe I should start investing in my PC more

AI companies are buying up all of the RAM in a futile bit to reach AGI.

I swear bro, just let me add one more gigabyte. I swear, we're gonna get to AGI. Just add one more gigabyte. Just let me add one more gigabyte. Just let me add one more gigabyte. I swear. I swear. I swear. I swear, we're gonna get to AGI. Just one more gigabyte and just make it bigger. Just make it bigger. We're gonna get to AGI. We'll get there. We'll get there. We'll get there. Just make the model bigger. I swear.
