It’s when the coffers of Microsoft, Amazon, Meta and investment banks dry up. All of them are losing billions every month but it’s all driven by fewer than 10 companies. Nvidia is lapping up the money of course, but once the AI companies stop buying GPUs on crazy numbers it’s going to be a rocky ride down.
Pretty sure Gremlins caused the creation of a new certification in the US. Too many complaints about it being PG.
Hey! Spoilers!
As long as it hasn’t been coloured I believe.
I think it’s cheese-stringification.
It’s spent on NVidia GPUs. Jensen Huang just buys leather jackets from what I can tell.
They’re different, and I think this one has the capability of being more devastating.
The dot-com bubble was really broad. Hundreds or thousands of companies, all without vowels in their names trying to break new ground. A wild west style gold rush. When it popped a lot of small companies went bankrupt.
This is a handful of companies with billions of capital buying GPUs from NVidia to be make the largest hungriest machine they can. All in the pursuit of being first to create “AGI”. If one of them succeeds, the others are toast and multiple 500+B dollar companies will collapse in on themselves. If none of it works, the same thing happens and it takes a large chunk out of $4T Nvidia too.
A lot of the security fixes since spectre have focused on exploiting speculative execution (a key CPU performance feature) to cross security boundaries. Defeating speculative execution when switching from user to kernel space (for example) adds a lot of overhead.
The new kernel add controls so that machines that don’t need to worry about these exploits to disable the performance killing fixes.
The last three are linked. You understand that, right?
I think there was an inherent demand behind those examples though. Just the number of lives lost looking for the northwest passage showed how useful the Panama canal would be.
You’re also comparing government spending in a lot of those cases Vs private capital. That fact shows how much power has shifted in the world already.
Not these kind of figures. Only a quarter of countries have annual GDPs larger than what’s been spent so far this year. This is on a scale not seen before.
What makes it worse is that it’s being spent on something which consumes huge resources and has no purpose except giving a few people more power as they would control what these systems would say is true.
Thank you. I seriously didn’t understand what the field was.
I was working in the AV industry at the time.
How is you working in the audio/video industry relevant? …or maybe you mean adult videos?
Also, that’s $5000 in 1994 money (if not older).
Surely fines should scale with inflation.
Effect No. 1: vendors gets review bombed with “looks nothing like what I ordered”.
Effect No. 2: Sales drop.
What sets Lisuan apart from past Chinese GPU attempts is its claim of building the TrueGPU architecture from scratch
…and on the first go they get 4060 performance.
Pull the other one.
You’re right. It’s not, but that’s what you’re labelled when you stand against it.
It’s less of a left - right thing (that’s mainly economics). It paternalism Vs liberty thing. Labour have always had a very strong “we must protect the populace” theme to their policies. Conservatives have it too, but they want to do it in a different way.
Sadly it’s a really difficult thing to stand against. Who wants to be labelled the person enabling paedophiles, when all you want is the right to private communication.
