1. Is there no “silicon in the world” available to anyone other than frontier AI companies?
2. Which frontier AI leaders are demanding they are the only place to run inference?

1. if you haven't seen the whole ram supply thing... apparently the answer is virtually "no".
2. I think that was OpenAI this time. But maybe it was Anthropic.

1. I've read about RAM supply, but I've also actually taken a look at shops and silicon is still for sale, so I am not sure how the claim is defensible - how are you quantifying it? And for "all of the silicon in the world"? And how much for non-frontier AI, and how much silicon for non-AI? (For what it's worth, Google AI says the claim is false.)

2. I searched but can't find such a quote from any company - perhaps the quote was made up by a site in order to push an anti-AI viewpoint? Or what is the exact quote you are referring to? (For what it's worth, Google AI also says that claim is false too.)
