So you mean to tell me they had the technology the whole time to make upgraded modular chips and sell them for pre-existing computer architecture but chose not to because they knew people would pay for the shiny new toys.
There’s a chip crisis and SUDDENLY!!! We’re all able to use new technologies on old computer architectures…
Call it supply and demand but I think that’s fucked up nm which way you look at it.
I read that and then immediately thought to myself, so they just chose not to release upgrades for old architectures and speed released a shit load of new hardware they knew people would pay OTA for.
This whole time they could’ve actually been making old computers better than they are and make it so the consumer didn’t have to spend a fuck load on upgrades but waited till a chip shortage to do it…
AI is causing human regression. That’s what this is.
Is one thing to poison the minds of idiots, but this is technological regression.
Things are getting bad.
The monopolists realized that their product is no longer unique so they have to create bottle necks in order to force out competition.
Humans are causing human regression. The tool is different, the pattern is the same.
i would say it’s causing a capitalism growth spurt which is “too fast” for the owning class to really keep up, especially with more and more working class realizing capitalism is the problem, not ai, chips, socket types…
i am hoping this growth will be what will cause its downfall.
