It depends on what kind of RAM you're getting.
You could get Dell R720 with two processors and 128 gigs of RAM for $500 right now on eBay, but it's going to be several generations old.
I'm not saying that the model is taking up astronomical amounts of space, but it doesn't have to store movies or even high resolution images. It is also not being expected to know every reference, just the most popular ones.
I have 120tb storage server in the basement. So the footprint of this learning model is not particularly massive by comparison, but It does contain this specific whole joker image. It's not something that could have been generated without the original to draw from.
In order to build a bigger model they would need not necessarily just more storage but actually a new way of having more and faster RAM connected to lower latency storage. LLMs are the kinds of software that become hard to subdivide to be distributed across purpose-built arrays of hardware.
