last fun AWS story. in 2016, we'd just launched EFS and someone came to us asking for a massive 15 GiB/s of throughput (lol). we told them to stop using the service. who was that customer? openai. or, as we knew them in 2016, "elon musk's AI thing" i wonder how much butterfly effect that single decision had for the industry
