Yeah, I ment it as a joke - I agree with you. Watched the Gamers Nexus GPU investigation recently, where they were shown how a chinese soldering shop can transplant GPU chips to a new board, including memory chip reuse.
Hopefully we can look forward to all that useless datacenter AI crap gets repurposed in a similar manner into something actually useful for users.
I wouldnt be so hopeful because they dont use commodity hardware afaik How are you going to use a h100 at home?
with the same tricks gamers have always used? Modded drivers, undervolting, etc.?
Exactly + you can harvest the HBM memory on chip level & resolder on custom boards usable in PCs as VRAM (with scavenged GPU) or as normal RAM sticks.
