Free market at work. Nothing to see here.
Not all heroes wear capes.
GTA 6 mission leak
Not the same, but quite close lol. I was ahead of my time many months ago when I made it.

However, they are also specialized machines that are often only bought by institutions and large companies, so thieves would likely have a hard time selling them on the black market.
I’m sure Russian, North Korean and buyers from some other countries would care about that.
its safe to assume those are the perpetrator. even north korea dont want to get left behind in the ai rat race i guess
I feel like North Korea probably couldn’t even produce the necessary power to run an AI.
they’ll power it with 100,000 peeps on bicycles
What a weird crime.
This is like stealing hospital equipment, sure it’s high value, but who are you going to sell it to that isn’t going to ask questions?
I can see corporate espionage making sense, one AI company stealing chips from another AI company but it doesn’t seem like these guys had a buyer.
eyes homelab suspiciously
There’s a black market for export to China but they’d need to already have contacts or involvement for that to work.
Although ot would be way funnier to see unobtainium enterprise gear end up on ebay lol.
🙈
Oh no… Anyway
BAHAHAHAHAH 😂
Very based and rob the ai tech bros Pilled!
You love to see it.
Unfortunately, with the state of this country I could also see aggressive militarized private security getting more popular around this shit.
Given that only another AI company could possibly be interested in AI chips perhaps we could spark some sort of war between two rival groups. Could be fun.
The Arasaka and Militech corpo future is closer than 2077 it seems
Mike Pondsmith’s Cyberpunk series actually started in 1988 with the first version of the TRRPG set in 2013. Arasaka was around then. Armatech-Luccessi International, which became Militech after rebranding, was a corpo in 2013, just in a different capacity at the time.
In 1990’s Cyberpunk 2020, set in 2020, both corpos had been fully established as very powerful, separate entities.
So, Mike’s seen this coming for a while. There are so many parallels from our current timeline and the fictional one in the game, it’s scary…
Honestly, there is a big turn in sci Fi when we moved towards neoliberalism.
It’s almost like in the 70s and 80s a lot of it became dystopian or fantasy.
Avarice as a prime motive does not make happy stories.
Just waiting for Trump to invade Panema and bring about the final collapse of the US.
The neat part about America is anyone can own militarized private security gear and weapons
Old and busted: Software piracy
New hotness: Hardware piracy
We had hardware piracy back in the day, when there were CPUs you may have been able to unlock extra cores on.
Then the companies started lasering them off so that was no longer possible.
Rob GPUs from the rich, give GPUs to the poor
They’re not even useful to anyone else.
Lol, rob gpus from the rich to sell gpus to the rich.
I love boosters two
$1.3 million
“Just installed 37,000 TB of DDR5 to my rig.”
It was only 1.3mil in memory l… So by delivery truck did you mean 1 small FedEx blister pack?
$1.3 million
So like a pallet of ram and a pallet of gpus. Got it.
