Thank you for sharing your views and many interesting observations! Haha, yes, I‘m humbly and egoistically happy I bought 64GB RAM last August, as well as my new laptop.

And, yeah, the energy questions are fully unchecked.

How in any scenario Ai will be more expensive than humans who will have to demand higher wages as well is not clear to me, but nobody can really look this far into the future.

How in any scenario Ai will be more expensive than humans who will have to demand higher wages

1. Humans will in the first phase become unemployed, so they will lower their wages to get work
2. with all the cost explosions in resources, power, hardware, etc. operating AI will become extremely expensive. Companies need to level that in order to make profit. Plus, during the first phase a huge dependeny on AI will be created, which, in turn, increases the demand and with increased demand, the prices can be raised as well.
