So many people here seem to be convinced that since NVidia is the leader in this tech all other attempts of building up something comparable is a loosing proposition, shouldn't be even attempted, it senseless, and everybody should just bow to them and buy from them.
Weird. I though competition, even when the Leader is far ahead is a good thing and up to the Investors.
No idea whether they can make it work, it is really hard, especially adjusting their tools, but they have written most tools themselves, so adjusting should be possible. Making those tools available to outsiders one day ? can happen, doesn't have to.

The understanding shouldn't even be necessary because the major players (Google, now Amazon) already build their TPUs and have been for years. Nvidia tax is too much.
