I think he has a point, but doesn’t reach the right conclusion. RAM is in short supply and critical to a functioning country. As such, I propose that we nationalize all data centers.
Interestingly, normies who argue against nationalization of private property tend to say “commies want to nationalize my toothbrush”, etc. not understanding the difference between private property (data centers) and personal property (consumer-grade RAM, for instance).
So, funny enough, Altman is advocating for the cartoon villain version of communism where the centralized authority (Sam Altman) nationalizes your personal property (RAM).
Meanwhile, folks actually in favor of nationalization to reap the benefits of planned systems of production would not try to steal your RAM, but would take Altman’s datacenters for the public good.
