What would be the motivation of said programmers? Who will pay them?
- captainbland 3y agoPresumably anyone who wants to to do AI work but doesn't want to get caught up in the expense and queues associated with the Nvidia data center parts and is willing to take a risk to get it done.
- LocalH 3y agoHeaven forbid a human do something not for monetary gain
- happymellon 3y agoPresumably the hope is, similar to Valve and Wine, there is a company that spends vast amounts of $$$'s on GPUs and so the cost of hiring a couple of engineers to fix the AMD situation isn't a large percentage, and they are able to predict massive amounts of savings. Whether the Valve situation strikes twice though isn't guaranteed. We already see all the other PC software stores continue to crowd around Windows providing apologies for its actions. If an AI firm can see past the next quarter, it could have huge ramifications.
