'A game of chicken': Samsung set to launch new storage chip that could make 100TB SSDs mainstream — 430-layer NAND will leapfrog competition as race for NAND supremacy heats up (msn.com) While this might sound like just another boost in memory capacity, its the first shot heard round the world, and what it actually implies is that others are about to produce similar chip stacking technology, where you can stack one processor on top of another. Note that, this is enough memory on one stupid chip, to create your own AI. Exactly where all the weirdness is going, is anybody guess, but chip stacking is about to become a cheap alternative, to cramming more transistors on a single chip. For this one, its best to follow what AMD does, because its basically about bandwidth capacity, and distributed computing, and what's cheap to make. Imagine if you had five graphics cards on a single chip, with 100tbs of ram, maybe 200, and you start to get the idea. The real limitation right now, is the internet, and its already falling apart. The AI will finish the job.
This is a copy of one of my posts from a few days ago. The enormity of the internet defies comprehension. It's use by Freeview television and the catch-up functions is a major culprit, we have more than 100 in the UK alone. Many of them use the internet to connect to their transmitters, some internationally. Needless to say, Google help them with the funding, by creating hundreds of different areas and cramming them with advertising. If you tune in to all the channels, you will notice that they all cut to the adverts simultaneously. we are literally watching a few programs between the adverts these days. Another culprit is internet shopping particularly the payments, along with all the supermarkets and shops using PDQ. When a local failure caused a shutdown one afternoon, more than 90% of the shops in Wimbledon were forced to close their doors. YouTube is in a class or it's own. Every major cruise liner, container ship and tanker needs a workshop manual. These days, to keep them up to date and keep them available anywhere on the planet, they are YouTube channels. For a single passenger liner, data for everything from the engines to the navigation, to the entertainment, not forgetting the coffee machines can add up to several thousand hours. For the remainder, I will rest my point with a question. If you got home one evening and sat down to watch every NEW video that had been uploaded within the preceding 24 HOURS. How long would you be sitting at your computer. Most people assume a few hours, laugh at the ones who answer 'all night' and my friend who said it would take a month caused endless laughter. The correct answer is 127 YEARS. This is one of the thousands of video sections I mentioned. They are not listed.
The problem with the internet is Google is half the fucking servers, Intel is 80% of the chips, and Microsoft is 80% of the software. Even generic chips are finally catching up with consumer and professional needs, and the cost of designing your own chip is coming down to small potatoes with RISC-V architectures. Likewise, you can use an AI to design your own operating system. The only bottleneck remaining, is the NSA demanding cheap access to anything, including our privacy. Everybody's been getting hacked, because the Three Stooges sold our national security to China, hoping to start WWIII. It worked, and business is booming. A possible fly in the ointment, is the recent successful teleportation of quantum holograms. Look Ma! No Wires! No Radio Waves! Radio Free Radio!
