Altman’s Controversial PC-Memory Claim Draws Backlash: Save It for AI Data Centers Instead

  It's the first time in the history of the world.

Recently, the Ottomans have been scolded!

It's only because of one of his interviews.

It's a terrible thing to have such a large memory in a normal person's personal computer.！

These words have caused the blood pressure of PC users and gamers around the world to soar.

Now that's what's hot on X.

In his view, the 32G or 64G memory you've been working hard to earn, with only a 5% utilization rate, is a waste of all humanity's precious opium resources.

In order to get Ottman to say that the world's scarce memory resources should be stored in his cloud data center and distributed uniquely by him.

Ironically, the tone was not yet down, and Ottman appeared in Long In, South Korea, and held a closed-door meeting with more than fifty Samsung presidents.

This is the old man who went to the memory factory to get food.

Obviously, the situation is clear now: he's not at all discussing the allocation of resources with us ordinary people, he's informing the cook directly about this table dish, and I'm going to leave.

This is a complete disruption to the way of life of the average consumer.

The story takes place on the podcast Cheeky Pint hosted by Stripe.

Talking about the global memory shortage, Ottman echoes the words:

When we look at the world's limited DRAM supply chains, we find that resource allocation is very poor.

In fact, hundreds of millions of personal computers around the world have accumulated large amounts of memory, but in the vast majority of cases, only about 5 percent of that memory is used.

And then he threw out his "genius plan":

By concentrating these scarce DRAM resources in cloud data centers, we can maximize computational throughput and simultaneous tasks.

It makes sense to put resources where they are most needed.

That is to say, in his eyes, this group of you who are playing games, going to a few web pages and watching videos, doing PPT, don't use a lot of memory at all!

The world's memory capacity is so high that personal computers have more than one memory and AI servers have fewer than one.

So don't buy the memory, give it to me!

With this, the whole internet is blowing up. Global PC users, e-sports players, digital bloggers and local supermodels have collectively broken their defenses, burning in rage.

A billionaire who has earned all the resources of the world and now wants to steal the memory of ordinary people?

Why?

According to Ottman's thieving logic, the safety airbags and fire extinguishers in your car should all be handed over to the fire department only once a day?

Someone's got an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth: from the perspective of global resource allocation, we really need to dismember him.

The logic of maximizing efficiency can also be used against the billionaire himself.

The yachts you buy, the mansions you buy, the cars you buy are also inefficient, and should you allocate resources to education, poverty and jobs?

It was a strange time for Ottman. He must have gone insane.

Others have even diagnosed Ottman with a "professional illness" called "data center cerebral palsy".

When an executive talks all day about hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure capital spending, the distribution of wavelength-generating power plants and several gigawatt of electricity at the same time, he gets this disease.

When you're completely living in this bubble, you start to think of the entire planet's supply of filters as a single optimization chart, and any obsolete bytes are intolerable.

In his eyes, you are not a user, you are a "residual capacity".

And the most amazing thing is that people who say that are the biggest drivers of memory shortages around the world.。

The capacity of semiconductors is limited. Large quantities of capacity are leaning towards AI servers, and the production in the consumer market will fall sharply, directly triggering the worst consequences: the cost of consumer hardware will skyrocket.

I'm sure my friends who have visited Jindong and Taobao ready-to-set have had a lot of fun with it.

For the past six months, the price of solid-state drives (SSDs, RAMs) on the PC's end has been similar to the price of a rocket. Two TB of solid-state memory, 32G, that used to be available for hundreds of dollars, can't be bought now.

The giant is a demon, why are we paying "AI taxes"?

Ottman is one of the biggest culprits of the current memory price bubble.

In October last year, Ottman flew to Seoul and signed a letter of intent with Samsung and SK Helix, respectively, to lock up memory for Stargate.Up to 900,000 DRAM waves a month。

900,000 films, which may account for about 40% of the world's total DRAM production. Korean media have calculated that Samsung and SK Hyundai's monthly capacity combined is barely enough.

A company that needs 40% of the world's memory capacity is panicking in the market.

By March 2026, the plot was in a hurry: Ottman "bought" 40% of the waves, having written only a few letters of intent to the books, and he may not have the intention of turning them into orders for real gold and silver.

But the problem is,The market doesn't distinguish between "intention" and "order".。

The panic has been generated, the capacity has been diverted, the INRDA has been shut down.

As a result, the price of DDR4 has skyrocketed 24 times in a year!

This statement not only exposes the arrogance of the Silicon Valley elite, but also exposes his calculations:Ottman is not at all concerned with environmental protection and the resources of the planet, he is just concerned with the calculations that have not turned into his box!

He hates crawling through the Internet, pulling out the memory bar directly from your computer, plugging it into OpenAI's machine room, and charging you for your monthly service fee.

According to foreign media outlets and South Korean media outlets, Ottman held a highly detailed closed-door meeting with about 50 Samsung executives (including representatives of SK Helix).

Ottman's core demands on this trip to South Korea may be only one:In the current global crisis of severe memory shortages, the forced binding of Samsung and SK Helix to open AI with the ability to lock up the entire industry's memory capacity!

This is what the Ottoman conspiracy is called:

The first step is to comment on PUA consumers, to brainwash you into thinking that the average person who buys large amounts of memory is guilty and wasted.

The second step is to use tens of billions of dollars of investors in the supply chain to buy upstream capacity, directly from the source of monopoly consumption-level memory supply.

While he was standing on the highest point of morality, he pointed at Jiang Mountain, while he turned the tables of the consumers to the sky. This is both to be a mentor and to eat for money, how difficult it is to see, it is just too deceiving!

Some netizens have even begun to conspire: The Ottomans, the AI giants, initially planned not only to monopolise intelligence, but also to force ordinary consumers to rent computers to use all their data!

They have invested billions of dollars to sweep through the supply chain, to raise prices, and to push the cost of installation of ordinary people to the sky.

Then he turns around and says to you in a pathetic arrogant gesture, 'Oh, you poor people can't afford a lot of memory, so don't fold that computer. Come on, buy my cloud service, for a month with 20 knives, I can do anything for you.'"

What kind of irony is that?

Technological advances were meant to make computing more popular, allowing everyone to enjoy dividends, spend less money, and buy stronger performance.

Think of the year when the personal computer was called a great invention because it liberated the computing power from the height of the mainframe to the desk of every ordinary person.

PC stands for empowerment and represents the digital sovereignty of the individual.

And today, the giants, led by OpenAI, are clearly brazen.Historical reversalsThey are attempting to regain computing power and concentrate on super data centers controlled by a few oligarchs.

In their ultimate utopian conception, you may not need a powerful computer at all in the future, you just need a grid-connected glass plate that shows pictures.

All of your work, all of your entertainment, all of your thought processes are dependent on their cloud servers, and you're constantly paying "calculator rent" for that source.

You are no longer the owner of the device, you are the slave of big data.
