Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Wasn't aware of that, but now that you mention it, my own RTX 3060 is an MSI Ventus.. (why did I not latch onto this one? Geez, sometimes I'm dim.)

The pennies, they be dropping..

TIL, thanks!

Not quite. When Nvidia releases a new chip, they'll release a bunch of documentation that indicates how the chip needs to be used. How to configure it. Cooling requirements. Etc. Each Board manufacturer (like MSI) uses this documentation to manufacture the physical boards that you buy.

What OP was referring to is that NVidia doesn't physically have a plant with a bunch of people in bunny suits walking around a clean room. Instead, they contract manufacturers and send the designs for them to build.

It's like how Apple designs phones but Foxconn actually builds them.
