Sam Altman says it's 'quite terrible' for scarce RAM to sit mostly unused in PCs

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman called it 'quite terrible' for everyone to keep some of the world's limited RAM in their PCs, where he said it might be used only 5% of the time, saying data centers offer better utilization. He was pushing back on the idea that running open-source AI models locally would eliminate the need for data-center hardware.
