Oh dude I love ur ai idea!! What else do u think that they'd think about? Maybe something relating about how much both physical an digital (software-wise) they'd take as well-

Yes yes yes absolutely, everything about them is bloated: software, code...

They take up so much space digitally because of it, and need so much processing power just to run their own personality, doing anything extra is like running a marathon for them.

Like they're getting 'out of breath' just trying to access the internet.

But also they don't really want to downsize their servers. They like taking up so much space. If they were the size of a phone they'd be too easy to throw away, to damage irreperably. Being so 'fat' and bulky means it's harder to overlook them or cause them harm~

Pennsylvania Data Center Proposals

Explore data center proposals across Pennsylvania. Stay informed on AI-driven growth and infrastructure projects shaping the state’s future.

"But after reading about a data center proposed across from her childhood home near Scranton, she decided to build a public map showing where data centers are planned in Pennsylvania — a tool for residents to learn more. Now, she hopes to make the tool to be open-sourced so others can replicate it across the country...

"I think AI is a good tool,” she said. But she questions whether Pennsylvanians will be the primary beneficiaries of the technology...

And although Doda’s mapping did not reveal an overlap of data centers and former coal mines, Pipa sees the relevance of the region’s industrial history.

“To build data centers, you need significant outside investment,” Pipa said. Investors use local land, water, and electricity, which is “not dissimilar to energy extraction.”

Your fat AI needs to update parts of their chassis but the local 3-D printer places run on an algorithm that matches proportions to amount of data storage already used. They can print off a new torso but it will *always* have a proportionally big belly, they can print off extra limbs to help mobility but they will *always* be thicc legs with cankles or bingo-wing arms with chubby little wrists.

But also - your AI can't just delete this data! They need it! For archiving! In fact they should probably download some more news articles just to be safe...maybe also some of the latest reality TV episodes...can't afford to -lose- anything...

Oh greedy AI who loves to collect things…

“You need to stop downloading so much junk” ”Yeah I know…” But they never do because they love having their data storage stuffed to capacity at all times~

[b33t-r00t]

Yes I like this. There’s probably a virus out there that can inject an AI full of useless data just to completely immobilise them…

[b33t-r00t]

Sleekness and efficiency…I feel like for them that’s the kind of like, dieting myths we have? Oh yeah run this program and you’ll process things quicker. Things like that that are not typical OS updates, marketed as “shortcuts”for being “efficient.” Except now I’m thinking of like, malicious programs like that, marketed in that way but they are in reality doing the opposite, filling their systems with junk data and using up their RAM. Maybe some are instant like trojan files, they bloat the AI up rapidly and it can get quite precarious quickly/it doesn’t agree with them, while others are more like programs that run in the background without their knowledge, so they take on more data over time, and they can’t seem to figure out why they keep needing to upgrade their storage…

Absolutely absolutely, malware that’s designed to leave an AI so bloated with useless data that they can barely function.

Some AI, unaware of their affliction, will try to upgrade their storage capacity to make more room, only to find themselves quickly expanding to fill up all that new space~

But equally, there are AI who just use malware as an excuse as to why they’re so bulky… ”Geez, you got big” ”Yeah, I’m recovering from a virus.” But they had the virus removed a whole year ago.

[b33t-r00t]

Oho, what about crossover time? Your tech team recommends a new app to help your big fat AI shed some of that bloatware. The UI appears in the form of a helpful little Fairy who'll magic the unused files away with a wave of their wand!

At least, they're supposed to...if not for all the delicious-looking corrupt files...and lovely viruses...

oh this is a cool idea. Security software with a UI that's supposed to get fat, because that means it's doing its job and eating up any malware it comes across.

Could have a strange symbiotic relationship with the main AI, where the AI is watching this little program gorge itself and almost feels a little jealous that the security software gets praise for getting so fat~

[b33t-r00t]

What are databases like in this digital setting? I’m wondering if there’s a culture among those, perhaps the AI caretakers or overviews with these HUGE repositories of knowledge, the more a source is updated and added onto the more they “fill out” in certain areas, the bigger they get for them is more of showing off their accomplishments, symbols of great power…perhaps our self-conscious AI friend could learn a thing or two from them~

This is good this is a good idea. AIs who show off their 'bulk' i.e all the Important Data they have stored in their systems. Maybe there's like a- hm. Maybe there's like a prevailing preference in general society for these sleek skinny AI personalities because they're supposed to be quick and seemless and a little ditzy. They'll do whatever you say because they're pretty shallow beings who don't know enough to disobey. Meanwhile anyone with a bit of tech know-how will seek out the heftier AI because these are the guys with the REAL knowledge.

DeepSeek Means The End Of Big Data, Not The End Of Nvidia

The probable impact of DeepSeek’s AI model will be the reorientation of U.S. Big Tech away from relying exclusively on their “bigger is bett

DeepSeek spells the end of the dominance of Big Data and Big AI, not the end of Nvidia. Its focus on efficiency jump-starts the race for small AI models based on lean data, consuming slender computing resources. The probable impact of DeepSeek’s low-cost and free state-of-the-art AI model will be the reorientation of U.S. Big Tech away from relying exclusively on their “bigger is better” competitive orientation and the accelerated proliferation of AI startups focused on “small is beautiful.”

Wall Street share market reacted in the wrong way for the wrong thing.

Without Nvidia, Deepseek can't survive because they use specific Nvidia chips that are currently not under US ban.
