Imagine 7 trillion dollars deep and the ai decides to binge watch TH-cam all day
What's funny is the job of AI is to watch content so yeah, it would watch TH-cam ALL DAY.
@@soysource3218a chip like this could probably watch the entirety of TH-cam in a single day so yes all day but only a single day.
I'll do it for 3.50
Or better yet, AI decides to run for President..
It would watch all of TH-cam in a day. All of PH in a week.
probably why they had to release SORA to show he's serious.

How about making homes affordable again?
That's not trendy
How about it? Lands are limited and building a home requires huge amount of labors. If you aren’t providing labors for cheap to solve this issue, why should others?
Even with supposed cheaper modular homes, 3d printed homes, they are exponentially harder to scale than tech.
@@howo357 there's more than enough available housing for every homeless person in the country, with plenty leftover. The housing problem isn't a matter of supply - it's a matter of affordability (by corporate greed and companies artificially inflating the prices).
@@user-xh9oq5zn9y it’s about supply and demand. Cooperate owned housing are only 5% of the total supply. Most of them are owned by mom and pops. Even if they are owned by giant corporations, they aren’t charities. If they bought a house for 500k don’t expect them to rent out less than 2500/month (5% cap rate not including maintenance and tax). And skilled labor is getting more and more expensive. Building a 1000sqft house is minimum 200k where I live. While I’m pretty liberal on most topics this isn’t that simple. And whenever the gov stepped in for the homeless, everything got so inefficient. Remember LA spends over a billion a year trying to house the homeless? That’s like more than 800k each year per homeless person. Tell me that’s a good way to use the tax money.
@@howo357 false
Sick amount of money, that amount could fix world poverty issues
Not really, do you have any idea how money works or how the world economy works?
But in my opinion, a carefully developed advanced Ai could potentially solve the world's poverty issues.
People at top don't want it fixed tho . U are slaves
yes.7 trillion could cure so many diseases, solve world hunger and more.
so will an conscious AI, because it will make humans obsolete on the planet!

Altman - not a name that inspires trust
Don’t go of names, go off actions.
Yes, Sam Altmans request seems unreasonable and is likely also unachieveable due to humanity being about as united and teamoriented as a bunch of starving cats, but agi coming into existence would literally redefine all of humanity so it's an understandable idea. The ability to create something smarter than yourself opens up infinite possibilities.
its god at that point
the 7 trillion probably involves a lot and would be used over a period of time. like, five or ten years to develop the chips and build the factories and aquire all the permits and legal bs that a company doing something like this on this scale that involves ai, would probably encounter.
It would also require restructuring the entire global economy. If the AI is capable of replacing let’s say a billion jobs, you can’t just throw all those people out on the curb.
@@Bruhbruhbruh-rn9qv would rather need to be a restructering of the global society rather than economy but yeah, that would be an issue. The economy itself wont really change since the jobs themselves wont be unnecessarily but will rather just be replaced. The problem is that society themselves will need to steer towards different kinds of jobs. Technically if agi is really just smarter humans then agi could fully replace humans anywhere so jobs themselves would technically become fully irrelevant, effectively turning us into adult babies, who live off of their agi adults, but i doubt it sould actually go that smoothly and i also think the idea of giving agi full power over everything due to its objective superiority over humans is quite uncanny even if on paper the results would be nothing but positive.
By infinite possibilities you mean our slavery and destruction, i agree
Now I know why the board members wanted to get rid of him.
7 Trillion dollars to develop ai chips which would be probably obsolete after a couple years, companies make new chips every year, actually delusional project.
Exactly.
Our chip making is running into limits, though. We can't go much smaller.
I wish him success. Chips are like neurons. If you don't have enough of them, you're not very smart. Currently the global brain isn't very smart.
that's exactly what i was thinking about them the other day there are less chips in the world than neurons in the human brain that's for shou something to think about
@@erenonder3054 there are definitely more chips in the world that there are neurons in the human brain.
@@Landgraf43 I dont think so..The brain has over 100 billion neurons...
@@gaditproductions I know. But there are much more than a hundred billion chips in the world.
@@Landgraf43I don't think you're getting it. One human brain has approximately 100 billion neurons. And there are more than 8 billion humans. If you multiply that...
A concern I have is that Altman is so convinced that AI will revolutionise the world and bring us all unimaginable abundance that it leads to an 'ends justify the means' rationale. That could include using incredible sums of money and pushing on with AI too fast that it could become dangerous on so many levels. Sure, this could end in a world of hyper abundance and bliss but on the other hand, it could be the end.
Why would they fund that many to the product that could replace everyone's jobs?
for that very reason. Less workers= less money being spent to earn more for the company and spend that free capitol on other things.
@@KillaCamShepNerd if people don't have jobs to earn money, how will they buy the products created by company? How will they buy that AI created by company? Don't tell me that company will give products to them for free

He is literally a multimillionaire why would he care about a few trillion dollars if he cant even spend his current money until his death, and that is still putting aside that he will literally immediatly get arrested by some kind of secret service and be unsafe no matter where he goes.

Okay! We'll shut down your cable and tv, so you can stop coming up with conspiracy theories from science fiction movies.
Make it open source, and I'll contribute to that investment.
yeah, just the value of the 2 largest companies in the world combined for a guy who's barely taken this company anywhere. Once OpenAi is in the 10 figure valuation range he can start speaking about a multi trillion dollar project
Barely taken this company anywhere? It amazes me that people are capable of having such opinions like yours and even feeling confident enough to post something like this
@@franciscorullan The business has barely been in the public view for a year or 2, the business is bleeding billions a year and can't sustain these losses, they're not even close to profitable, and you're going to try to argue that the guy behind this deserves 7 trillion instead of a leader of a proven company that is profitable and reliably makes chips, such as AMD or Nvidia?
Who said they can't sustain these losses? Where are you getting that from? Also, no one that's in the startup atmosphere would reasonably expect them to be profitable in this amount of time that they have had their public launch. Also the articles of incorporation mention that profit is not one of their goals but to develop safe AI for the public. To your last question that seems very cynical and pessimistic. That type of mindset suffocates innovation. Sam Altman is making strides whether you like it or not and I'll end the brief discussion there. I invite you to learn more about OpenAI and the expectations of the public. So far they've exceeded absolutely all the expectations.@@moomie1634

@1:16: You gotta wonder if the SMH stands for Shake My Head
7 trillion dollars is roughly what it would cost to design the entire required infrastructure to send the first group of people to mars.
Simply put there’s no way Altman is getting this kind of funds, at least not within his lifetime. AI in itself is still in its infancy, AI would need to replace essential tasks for most of the world’s people before such funds would be a realistic goal. Think of Apple, today it’s the single most successful and beloved technology company touches nearly every corner of the world. The entirety of Apple is worth less than half of 7 trillion dollars. If that alone doesn’t paint the picture then Altman simply doesn’t fathom how much money 7 trillion dollars really is.
Obviously it's unrealistic but hopefully they will find ways to cut this budget much much further.
Apple, successful in terms of money or real value? I don't think that's either right now.
Pretty wealthy but their devices are almost purely sold to fangirls.
You say that until openai surpasses humans and puts 70% of the global workforce out of work...Surely 7 trillion would seem like a small number then
Before covid if someone told you there was gonna be something that made the entire world shutdown you'd think they were crazy...until it happened
@@PherPhur Apples entire value is a little over $3 trillion atm, its fluctuates based on market capitalization. Their cash on hand they can spend at any moment is around $70 billion.

Every video you post is a hit with me! Also, I had a fascinating discussion with someone who's gone from Tesla to interviewing billionaires. Thought you'd find it interesting!
Trillions to make future humanity miserable and dystopian is crazy
This is insane. If we consider for a moment that kind of money is typically associated with defense, which obviously makes the most sense in current geopolitics, then Sam Altman is effectively trying to say he has something that is more valuable than the most sophisticated and advanced weapons systems currently in existence.
The possibility has always been there but to see this company making progress so fast and after that situation where Sam was fired for a second now I am sure something big must already have happened behind the scenes...
It's going to be worth more than all the global economies combined 😅
yea, defense of 1 country that spends 10x the next highest country and it's 1 trillion...
Won't chip prices drop then? If so... that good... imo
$TSM is delaying new fabs in Ohio and Arizona because they can’t hire the labor to build the fabs or train up labor or build robots to work in the fabs in a few years. $TSM is building new fabs in Japan and Germany while Samsung is spending big money to expand in South Korea. Unless you can 3D print the needed labor good luck to Sam Altman with his new wet dream.
Are you sure it's expensive enough?
Nah, they need to increase the amount of money that they need. 😂😂
Well, I don't have it.
C’mon man. We can start gofundme for my guy. I will chip in 50
I’ll chip in 10….. ahh crap actually lemme pay off my credit card first lol

I believe trillions of dollars should be invested in robots and chips and AI.
With that kind of money, it would get so many people out of poverty!
Every person on earth would get a whole 1000 dollars, life-changing! (Sarcasm)
*the federal reserve gonna need a lot more ink in that printer.*
OpenAi is Skynet
Where's the money going to come from?
If a space shuttle costs 2 billion to develop wtf is this much money going to?
This is the equivalent of giving a 500k house to 14 million Americans. Assume five persons will live in the household thus around 70 million citizens will be housed. The US spent 8 trillions on a two decade war on Sunni Islam and lost the war in 2022. Imagine if the US didn't enter these wars and simply stopped immigration, visas and illegal immigration for two decades.
This year is AI, three years ago was crypto. There is not enough smarth people in order to develop which those companies want to. It's simple, there are no people to develop those specific models what companies of an area of business need.

He can do it
How about trillions of dollars for everyone about to lose jobs in the next few years?
When you think that the entire computer industry, let alone the AI advances, all depend on China not invading Taiwan, then it suddenly makes sense for America to begin manufacturing chips. The big problem, I guess, is that the costs are never going to be as low when you need to pay decent salaries and follow first-world legislation.
Not addressed: why $7 trillion? What will it be used for and how is it related to what OpenAI is currently doing?
He wants to build agi. you need stupid amounts of compute and energy.
They need chips , chips and more chips. More chip factories are needed
Sam Altman Fried?
This lady did her research
7 trillion dollars.. they need to go to apple and google for that type of funding
Great move by Sam, it's not rocket science that in order for his AI to break through, Chips tech and production need to be take off first. Sitting here in my home under the valley of sun, I wonder what is happening that everyone is dragging their feet to build those new chip factories that shouldn't take 5 years to build. In reality, if AI do take off, 7 trillion is just a small part of the overall picture. I am looking forward to it because a lot of that money is going to flow into the valley of the sun due to the location and the chip industries that are already here.
What the hell happened to Worldcoin ?
"dragging their feet". Man we're talking about some of the most sophisticated stuff on the planet, have you seen single lithography machines used in chip manufacturing?
You don't just spawn workers for this out of thin air and throw it together.
@@PherPhur You need to go check out the speed of how Taiwan is building their own chip factory and come back to tell me if people in the US are dragging their feet or not. You are woefully out of touch and this is exactly why Sam had to make an absurd comment. Ignorance at its best.
