ChatGPT happily drafts a memo telling Sam Altman to stop buying up DDR5
fbc03 · reddit · 2026-11-02
A Reddit user shared a ChatGPT conversation asking it to tell "your boss Sam Altman" to stop buying DDR5 RAM kits and get RTX 5090+ GPUs instead, jokingly pricing his own 32GB kit at €1 million.
ChatGPT played along: "Consider it officially submitted to the imaginary OpenAI executive board," concluding that OpenAI should (1) stop buying everyone's DDR5, (2) invest in RTX 5090s, RTX PRO GPUs and datacenter accelerators, (3) note GDDR7/HBM has far higher bandwidth than DDR5, and (4) leave gamers' RAM kits alone. The bit reflects gamer frustration over the RAM price surge, with commenters riffing on the €1,000,000 price.
