A cure for the memory crisis? John Carmack envisions fiber cables replacing RAM for AI usage, which would mean a better future for us all
Essentially since the access patterns in AI usage are predictable, they could hypothetically replace their heavy RAM usage with this. Which would mean more RAM for the rest of us.
Random Access how?
If you read the article, it’s sequential access but that’s fine for AI use.
I read the article title and it said RAM. Now you’re trying to pull a sam altman bamboozle - “it’s not random, it’s sequential” - then it ain’t RAM.
Fuck the law and fuck the article yeehaw
Current title seems a bit better.
