Its not that I don’t care, its that they are too expensive & the monopolies want to exert control over the market. I considered buying a Ryzen AI Max+ 395. They actually had some okay deals for a bit, but they are still pretty inferior to GPU-accelerated solutions which are completely overpriced. Much of this was intentional, although RAM has recently seen more demand than supply. For a long time though, they were restricting the hardware & VRAM in GPUs though not because of price, but because it would take away from much of the dominance cloud-AI providers had, and also do so at the peril of them no longer being able to read & spy on your every conversation.
That is why IMO the US will lose the AI-race. Not because we don’t have smart people, but because capitalism is anti-innovation.
