China is spending a crazy amount of money with several companies trying to copy SpaceX. They are trying to land boosters right now.

Remember when there were many, many articles from MSM against OF? And then it got sold to some other people and, suddenly, no more attacks. Only stupid shock stories on how much money some woman is making on OF. What a coincidence.

The AMD MI300 is nowhere near Hopper. A real threat is Cerberas. Their approach avoids the memory bottleneck of loading the whole model DRAM->SRAM for each token batch. I hope their IPO goes well before the AI bubble pops.

It's interesting how Occupy Wall Street was ridiculed by the press. I think they were onto something even though I don't agree with almost everything else they also believed in.

If Cerebras keeps improving it will be a decent contender to Nvidia. Nvidia VRAM-SRAM is a bottleneck. For just inference, it needs to download a model at least once per token (divided by batch size). The bottleneck is not Tensor Cores but
