No kidding. The world’s never going back to a state where $10k doesn’t buy me enough hardware to run very capable agents.

You can get an Intel Arc Pro with 48G of GDDR6 for around $2000 new. That'll run up to about a 40G model at 8-bit or 80G models at 4-bit, and at probably like 100 TPS.

When the RAM bubble pops you'll be seeing cards with 4X this amount of RAM for that price.

So… then agentic AI will be even more ubiquitous and accessible.

I think parent is agreeing with you but thinks your price point is actually a bit high.
