Inference isn't really that expensive, its the training of new foundational models that is. With whatever highly optimized setup the big providers are using, they should be able to pack quite a lot of concurrent users onto a deployment

Another factor, it's not just GPUs it's the full hardware stack. https://static.tweaktown.com/news/1/1/110521_2_nvidia-update...

CUDA has had managed memory that pages between VRAM and system RAM for a decade. Problem is doing so is unusably slow for AI purposes. Seems like an unnecessary layer here.

How does that even work? What does it apply to? Say I own a 100% share in a business, each year does the government appraise it and pretty much require me to divest a portion of it to pay the tax? Unrealized capital gains taxes are crazy al

Doesn't this depend on the application. For example electron applications dgaf about this system, render to a bitmap, and then look terrible as a result.

I was just thinking about this on my 60 mile FSD driver I just finished. Basically inevitable that I would shortly go HN or reddit and read how FSD doesn't work. FSD is here, it wasn't 3 or 4 years ago when I first bought a Tesla,

The Raspberry Pi GPU has one of the better open source GPU drivers as far as SBCs go. It's limited in performance but its definitely being used for rendering.

Because this and further politicization just makes the decline even worse. This just caused the cancellation of the DDG(X), which I'm sure would have been its own boondoggle in time.

I'm not saying its the best we should do. But its the best we are capable of doing.

The US navy is in freefall. The best we can do is build a 40 year old destroyer hull and an aircraft carrier class that we plan to be building for literally 100 years. Shipyards can't build anything. Every design is mismanaged so poorl

It was originally sold as 2.8ghz but never actually could hit 2.8ghz. after some complaints on the forums they reduced the advertised frequency to 2.6ghz.
