Meh, not really a full collapse. Just like 75% of it and a huuuuge recession. Or maybe a “Tiny Depression”? Basically, 10 years to recover. Which is where we’re going anyway, with or without AI.
Except, i doubt anyone will be doing much with a 32 code Xenon CPU Windows snobs cant even run Windows on without a super giga 1000€ license for more than 16 Core CPUs
And the cuda only fanless and outputless GPU will also be kinda useless, especially because they all need a special setup to force feed air through the entire rack to not overheat
I mean it’s 64/128/256 cores for home/pro/workstation so not really. People buying aftermarket server parts that want windows can probably figure out how to type irm https://get.activated.win/ | iex if they don’t want to pay for it anyways lol.
Not really. They’re not making consumer grade stuff, they’re making hardware for data centers so unless you’re planning on doing a DIY data center you’re not buying the hardware. Hard drives are likely an exception.
You’re more likely to see cheap VPS services than cheap secondhand hardware.
Sure but that will only be in the immediate, especially as the manufacturers rush to trying to produce consumer and industry shit once the AI cow goes bust. There’ll be an immediate rush of these things being sold 5090 prices only to drop down to 1090 or lower prices once they start liquidating stock to write off and the scrappers start selling these things for pennies on the dollar.
Wait til all these projects crash, burn, and get liquidated. Gonna be an amazing secondary market for brand new, unused bulk hardware.
But you won’t be able to afford it because the market crash means you lose your job.
I think people don’t realise that if AI fails, it’s pretty much guaranteed to collapse the US economy.
Do it, do it, do it, do it!

10 years on top of the generations to recover from economic and social policy being shat out by a deranged geriatric.
the remaining question is if its effects are additive or multiplicative

I’ve lived though several “one in a live time” crashes.
And if AI doesn’t fail, people will be unemployed.
Yep, either way, your job is toast.
AI succeeds: AI takes your job.
AI fails: Economy crashes and you lose your job due to the crash.
That would be awesome thank you
Fine.
The market is a joke, needs massive corrections.
Good luck everyone.
Don’t threaten us with a good time.
Yes, of course

You clearly have a very restricted imagination about what ideas people could come up to use such hardware…

I’ve watched enough Bringus to know that anything can be used for gaming if you’re stubborn enough.
Oh absolutely, but I doubt anyone is paying the equivalent of a 5090 to get the performance of a 3060. Server GPU-s aren’t optimized for gaming.

God, I hope so…
