Yep, i feel like i am just a bit skeptical. I would have just liked to see multiple chips out in the wild (from different companies outside of intel) using the intel fabs.

They have been talking about being a foundary for external use for a while, years... yet i have not heard of a single customer yet, just an announcement today that intel and ericsson have a partnership. It feels like yes they want to become

What if they didnt know about codeweavers using the name? Wine goes into bottles (in the real world)... its a play on words.

My understanding, is that ChatGPT... has a prompt that goes before your question (and previous answers) that set up the stage for how it should respond. It could be that the safeguards they have put in place, sit in this prefix prompt state

I think the majority of what made the M1 lineup so successful, was that they were on TSMC's 5nm before anyone else, and had that exclusivity. November 2020 the m1 mac mini was released... September 2022 was when Zen4 came along, the ne

Not just that, I am assuming that there are parts of that code, that will be analysed by the Cycles developers, to enhance Cycles to improve it.

I think its also leaning into their new product MI300, which has 24 cpu cores with 8 compute dies. Both CPU and GPU (and memory) on a single package. Conventional processing + AI together. Hybrid approaches.

I agree that a lot of AMDs wins have come from TSMC. That being said, I feel like the biggest win for them over the past 5 years (well 6 now)... was moving to chiplets, which all started at Global Foundaries. Having the same chip, from the

Depends... sometimes its built specifically to kernels. One common instance is, blender's Cycles renderer. Every time there is a new NVIDIA GPU. It needs to be recompiled to support it. Sometimes that also requires a new CUDA version t

Fun fact, whenever you go to the movies, films (that are projected digitally) are encoding in JPEG2000 (wrapped in a MXF in XYZ Colourspace). We also use it for our 3D renders for archviz, and is supported in our editing applications aswell

Having direct involvement in the wind industry... most plan -> completion developments take 5-10 years. heck even one from 2013 still hasnt had ground broken. The main reason? NIMBYs. Loads of people go out to the countryside to retire.
