90 percent of the performance at ten percent of the price, in just two or three racks, is hard to beat

    “Where are the engineers” to manage this on prem hardware?

    Well, you laid them off, you fuck.

      I don’t like it, but that would just make them cheaper to hire back as AI babysitters.

      IBMs a bit weird. They fired a shitload of them a while back.

      Then they said they’re only replacing junior roles.

      Then I think they’re hiring a lot more juniors because they need to build the next seniors.

      I didn’t really follow too closely but that last statement is at least something I can respect.

        It’s not really something you should respect. It’s PR shell games. They fired senior staff to replace them with cheaper juniors. Not because they actually think they’re training the future but because they think they can get the same work out of them+AI

      They’re going to use AI to install the AI.

        That’s out in some form already. What could go wrong?
