<p>People who bought CPU instead of Nvidia are coping with this reality.<p>I'm not sure how this happens. Reality distortion field?<p>Like, it is common knowledge at this point right?</p>

<p>9 years of philosophy and I'm over platonic realism and reading contemporary philosophy of science.<p>The thing is, we are wrong, but this stuff is useful to make predictions. Everyone knows about the copernican revolution. But when it first happened, the old models(earth at the center of the solar system) were more accurate at predicting where the plenets would be.<p>Scientists pragmatically spend their time doing best fits. (Typically)<p>But then the paradigm shifts and we are closer to reality than the current local minimum/maximum.<p>Before reading philosophy of science, I was into m theory and string theory. Now I'm nearly sure it's bunk that might be replaced in our lifetime.<p>I thank scientists, but I do not envy them.</p>

<p>DAE read these CPU Mac posts as an example of<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reality_distortion_field" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reality_distortion_field</a><p>I own an Nvidia chip and even then I find these models fast but not useful for contemporary AI.<p>I can't imagine slow and useless.<p>It reminds me of that US politician that has controlled the minds of 30% of the population.</p>

<p>Even if somehow all the data centers are gone, it's still uselessly slow.<p>But also that's a pretty extreme hypothetical. Imagine the polymarket on that.</p>

<p>I can only guess some post purchase remorse.<p>Need to justify buying an expensive rig that doesn't do what you expected.<p>Specifically thinking the people they could do something AI with cpu, and realizing it isn't feasible. Happened at my fortune 20 company. They had to get approvals and ofc it was useless. Plenty people tried to explain, but they were the principle engineer, and out ranked everyone.<p>"It's not going to work", the topic changed, and we never spoke about it again.</p>
