TWiAI Podcast: Altman's DRAM Complaint and Bittensor Subnets
markjeffrey · x · 2026-11-06
Mark Jeffrey appears on This Week In AI discussing broad AI trends and Bittensor subnets (Lium mining, Engy, GM supply-vs-demand vs CoreWeave's borrow-to-build). The show cites Sam Altman calling it "quite terrible" that scarce DRAM sits idle in home computers; Lightmatter's Nick Harris argues DRAM will always be scarce while AI scales — chips store data in flat sheets while brains store it in 3D. Post also includes an unrelated PayPal×LAUNCH partnership promo.
