GPT Ghibli renders GPU dry! Sam Altman urgently shouts: Who has 100,000 graphics cards, call me quickly, announcing the launch of "Image Generation V2"

GPT-4o drawing feature is too to squeeze the GPU dry! OpenAI CEO Ultraman urgently limited free users and publicly solicited 100,000 graphics cards to alleviate serious computing power bottlenecks. Sam Altman: The GPU is burning up!) ChatGPT generation of Ghiblite is too popular and will be temporarily limited) (Background supplement: OpenAI newly launched the strongest graph model: accurate production of infographics, multi-modal input, realistic and difficult to distinguish, built-in GPT-4o) o Recently launched ChatGPT GPT-4o powerful image generation function, recently set off a viral AI drawing craze on the Internet, especially Ghibli-like generated images, which amazes users. However, the large demand has overwhelmed OpenAI's GPU and faced a computing power crisis. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on X last week, "Our GPUs are burning!" , announcing a limit on generating images for free users, and begging users to calm down, stop generating images, their team needs to sleep... Sam Altman: Facing a shortage of computing power, urgently recruiting 100,000 high-end graphics cards On April 1, after Sam Altman announced the launch of ChatGPT image generation to all free users, today (2), he bluntly revealed the serious challenges facing OpenAI on X, "We are trying to control the situation, but as we deal with the challenge of computing power, please expect that the release of new OpenAI features may be delayed, the service may fail, and sometimes it will slow down." He even urgently asked for help: We are trying to make everything run smoothly as soon as possible; "If anyone has 100,000 GPUs to provide them right away, please contact me immediately!" Sam Altman's rare call for help shows that the world's leading AI giant is experiencing a serious computing power bottleneck, and its scale has forced the CEO to personally solicit high-end AI graphics card resources from the world. The industry generally believes that the "100,000" scale is likely to refer to high-end GPU graphics cards such as Nvidia H100 or B200 for AI training and inference. Can DePIN supplement the hashrate gap? The community reacted to this with mixed reactions. Some paying users complained that the image generation function of free users affected the quality of service, and one user wrote in X: "If you don't have enough computing power, why are you still open to free users?" At the same time, there were many sarcastic and humorous responses from the community. Someone joked: "The guy who bought 40 RTX 40 graphics cards for mining in 2021 finally waited for his moment of redemption." There are also people who ask Sam Altman to go to Musk's xAI for help; Another netizen generated a picture showing Huida CEO Huang Jenxun thinking that nothing smells better than GPU burning. More cryptocurrency communities believe that emerging "decentralized physical infrastructure networks" (DePIN) projects, such as Nosana, io.net, Render Network, etc., may help supplement the computing power gap. These projects aim to integrate the world's idle or underutilized GPU computing resources through blockchain and token incentives. The community believes that these DePIN projects may provide OpenAI with some of the computing power it needs, and although it is still a question mark whether it can immediately meet the demand for "100,000" high-end AI graphics cards, this incident has undoubtedly increased the visibility of the DePIN concept. pic.twitter.com/zJjqZGqXVV — metaschool (@0xmetaschool) April 1, 2025 OpenAI Coming Soon "Image Generation V2" Feature OpenAI's CEO's public call for help not only highlights OpenAI's dilemma, but also indirectly confirms high-level AI The market for graphics cards continues to be tight, which is undoubtedly positive news for chip manufacturers such as Nvidia. At the same time, this incident has also brought greater attention to independent GPU cloud service providers such as CoreWeave and new computing power sharing models such as DePIN. It is also worth noting that Sam Altman announced earlier today that OpenAI will launch the "Image Generation V2" function, showing that its ambitions for the AI mapping market are undiminished, but whether it can solve the bottleneck of computing power is still the focus of attention in the future.
