Sam Altman hasn't had the easiest time online after his comments about data center RAM needs taking priority over consumer electronics, with even Elon Musk joining the backlash. While the OpenAI CEO later tried to clear things up, seemingly aware that he was starting to sound a little too much like a movie supervillain, one developer wasn't about to let the joke die and created a script that automatically emails Altman every day with details of just how much unused RAM is sitting on your PC.

Iain Kay has shared the Ram-Altman bash script on GitHub, so anyone with a Linux system can give it a try. The script checks your machine's memory usage every five minutes, and it sends an email when more than 10% of the system's RAM is available.

To keep things from getting too repetitive, the script rotates between eight different subject lines, 10 email messages, and six sign-offs. Here's an example of one of the emails:

Is this actually a real tool? When it comes to tracking memory usage, yes, however, getting Sam Altman involved is another matter. The correspondence depends on how you set it up.
