NVIDIA is about to walk off with a trillion dollars because nobody at AMD “gets it”.
With no meaningful competition, NVIDIA will gouge as hard as they can. Such as charging $50K for a card that’s not too different to a 4090 but with more memory.
- mindcrime 3y agoNVIDIA is about to walk off with a trillion dollars because nobody at AMD “gets it”. I think they "get it" OK. Whether or not they can formulate a viable strategy and execute it is one question, but they get the idea that "AI is important" and they know where they stand vis-a-vis NVIDIA. This is another reason I'm willing to invest some time and money in working with AMD products for AI/ML. History has shown us their ability to go toe-to-toe with a seemingly unassailable industry titan before, and they came out in pretty good shape then. https://www.forbes.com/sites/iainmartin/2023/05/31/lisa-su-saved-amd-now-she-wants-nvidias-ai-crown/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/iainmartin/2023/05/31/lisa-su-s...
- JonChesterfield 3y agoAMD took aim at HPC and shipped Frontier. The ROCm stack is quite HPC themed because that was the driving project. Porting to run AI models is a work in progress but the back end is the same compiler stack that was written for graphics (largely games consoles iiuc) then upgraded for HPC, it'll get there.
