Better than being straight up priced out of computing altogether I guess.

Compute will become the means of production and we are not going to get a share of it because the world is hyper optimized for value extraction

We are literally getting a share of it. The chinese are releasing open weight models that compete with fucking Fable. We just need the industry to catch up and start manufacturing the hardware we need to run this stuff. We are so close!

Dude, he's saying that it won't catch up because it's part of the new means of production. Compute is the hardware.

Why not? Demand is absurdly high, and so are the margins. The chinese are pretty good at obliterating those margins.

If you want the cheapest shit grade of steel, they will sell it to you. If you want the best grade available anywhere, they will sell that to you as well.

It's not a matter of the Chinese being incompetent, it's a matter of the buyer demanding the lowest price possible and/or not paying attention to what they receive.
