OpenAI CEO warns against personal DRAM use amid AI demand

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on a podcast that allocating scarce DRAM to personal computers is inefficient and that centralized cloud services should handle AI workloads, in the United States. He previously argued that personal RAM is a poor use of limited DRAM amid rising AI-driven demand and supply constraints that have pushed memory prices higher. Earlier remarks also highlighted that keeping large-memory workloads in data-center clouds maximizes utilization and eases pressure on the limited DRAM supply.
