I consider those two very different problems. One is a supply problem, the other is a competition problem.
Also, housing is a basic human right, whereas fast GPUs probably are not.
- zeusk 2y agoDifferent markets, similar semantics. Both are artificially supply restricted. Infact you can argue that something is really wrong in our governance if housing is human right and yet there are people profiteering from how unaffordable it has become. I am more appalled at how long it has taken for the big tech other than Google to standardized ML workload and not be bound by CUDA.
- hamandcheese 2y agoAs far as I know, there is no political barrier preventing Intel and AMD from making competitive GPUs. There is, however, a political barrier to increasing the housing supply.
- zeusk 2y agoThe artificial limit does not have to be political, it can be as simple as nvidia blowing fuses to reduce compute on lower tier cards.
