#2Wow, I hope that the surveillance state will be at last 30% more efficient.

#3How can they possibly keep the location of something like this a secret? There have to be thousands of people involved in building and maintaining it.

or at least ads will be 2% less irrelevant.

enormous compute power…and RSC will enable new AI models
that can learn from trillions of examples, understand
hundreds of languages, and more,” Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg

#6I wonder if things like this are the real reason behind the GPU shortage. How many other AI super computers are being built right now?

#7“The experiences we’re building for the metaverse require enormous compute power…and RSC will enable new AI models that can learn from trillions of examples, understand hundreds of languages, and more,” Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg I don't really understand how AI processing is going to make the 'experiences' any better? This seems to me like investor fluff, saying they have some insane capability that other 'VR provider…
It won’t make it better - it makes it more cost efficient to throw random numbers at a random number optimizer to increase the number of times they can report someone clicked or saw an ad. That’s it, end of story.
The value ad is that the engineering community that they employ has a job, the stock stays higher because of their perceived value add to the tech, and the push to control data continues unburdened by something as trivial as a lack of compute power. Hooray. Progress.

Nope, you’ll just get 10x as many ads with half the duration to minimize the amount of time your brain has to determine if something irrelevant or not. Those 5 second ads don’t cut short because they’re kind - it’s all they need to repeat to have the name, jingle, or sad-face burned into your neural net.

#9How far can we actually take current machine learning technologies by scaling the underlying hardware? Are we going to see some AI algorithms that are 20% better or an order of magnitude better? And what will that realistically look like to an end user? This will have cost a lot of money and maybe the news alone will push stock prices and mean its paid for itself but is it actually going to result in a substantially better product?

won't it just be a few racks of gpus in one one the existing giant data centers?
