Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Keep in mind I was wildly guessing with a lot of numbers... like I'm sure 90 GB vRAM is enough for decent quality pictures generated in minutes, but I think you need a lot more compute to generate video at a reasonable speed? I wouldn't be surprised if my estimate is off by a few orders of magnitude. $.30 is probably enough that people can't spam lazily generated images, and a true cost of $3.00 would keep it in the range of people that genuinely want/need the slop... but yeah I don't think it is all going cleanly away once the bubble pops or fizzles.
