Developer creates script to email Sam Altman about his unused RAM every day

Picture: Dexerto

A web developer has created a script that automatically emails OpenAI CEO Sam Altman to tell him how much RAM is sitting unused in their computer. The project, appropriately named Ram-Altman, was published on GitHub by developer IainKay in response to Altman's previous comments about the world's limited supply of computer memory being wasted in personal PCs. Script tells Sam Altman how much RAM he's missing According to its GitHub page, Ram-Altman is a Bash script that monitors a Linux computer's memory usage every five minutes. If more than 10% of the machine's RAM is available, the script can automatically send Altman an email detailing exactly how much memory isn't being used, limited to one message per day.
