I understand what he's saying. Sam Altman thinks that HE, with his data centers, will make better use of the potential of VRAM (or whatever word designates computing capacity) compared to the local market.

In theory, I don't disagree. He needs it, and he will use it, that's for sure. Moreover, his logical argument should be viewed purely through the lens of his own self-interest: "I need it, I don't have it, it's your fault, and anyway, you don't even use it properly."

But the question I ask myself is: can he use VRAM for something other than what is requested millions of times? "GPT, make me an app to boil eggs," "GPT, make me an app to compare prices," "GPT, make me an app to alert me during Black Friday..."

So many resources used thousands of times... With his VRAM... So the counter-argument we can give him is: Stop thinking like an American picking flowers with a bulldozer (no offense, it's just a metaphor) and learn to conserve your resources.

Is Azure the right choice?
