AMD could not afford their own foundries anymore. The same is likely to happen to intel. The CPU business may be sold off to some other company, so x86 and intel will "survive" for sure but they will rely on other fabs to produce

1. Desktop market share is shrinking and shrinking. 2. https://system76.com/desktops/thelio-astra-a1.1-n1/configure 3. NVidia N1x is not yet for sale but benchmarks are promising.

In the past AMD needed to survive for antitrust reasons. Now x86 is losing in relevance now as alternatives are established. Nobody needs to keep intel alive.

Nobody really knows if 18a is a failure or if it was turned into one by deliberate mismanagement. It feels like when Microsoft took over Nokia.

Your model keeps the weights on slow memory and needs to touch all of them to make 1 token for you. By batching you make 64 tokens for 64 users in one go. And they use dozens of GPUs in parallel to make 1024 tokens in the time your system m

They could have developed a next gen cutting edge node in time but they just decided against it because it was not cool anymore. Instead they decide to do... what exactly? Milk the aging x86 cow with inferior architecture using the same fa

In the past we had only x86 and they were produced by AMD and Intel, no other serious competitor left. Of course in that market it will swing back and forth between these two. The stronger competitor will not go for the kill due to governme

AMD lost their foundry business on the way. To keep the foundry competitive you need a lot cash rolling in or you're out. Either they become competitive soon, somebody keeps pumping billions in for many years, or they're out and l

Current models have no memory, they don't learn. You have to learn for them for now. You have to put the learnings in the instructions and in code comments. If you don't describe WHAT your code SHOULD do and WHY you write it in TH

Humans should be allowed to compete in groups of arbitrary size. This would also be a demonstration of excellent teamwork under time pressure.

But quality is going up a lot. Granted, it's not up to human levels yet, but it is going up fast. Also we will see more complex quality control in AI output, tailored to specific use cases and sold at a premium. Right now these don&#x2

I see. In my experience current LLMs are great for generating boilerplate code for basic UIs but fail at polishing UI and business logic. If it's important you need to rewrite the core logic completely because they may introduce subtle

What AI currently lacks is mainly context. A well trained, experienced human knows their reader very well and knows what they don't need to write. And for what they write they know the tone they need to hit. I totally expect that in th

You sound bitter. Did you try using more AI for the bug fixing? It gets better and better.

We have to wait and test it ourselves to see how far it gets in our daily tasks. If the improvement continues like it did in the past, that would be pretty far. Not quite a full researcher position but an average student assistant for sure.

I second this. o3 is pretty spot on while 4o answered exactly like what the parent got. I rarely use 4o anymore for anything. Rather would I wait for o3 than quickly get a pile of rubbish.

If the missing ingredient is not some secret technology that only few of these old players have, they are probably too busy with their existing business. Management may invest many years developing some new key technology on the side but wh

The solution is simple: New OKRs and KPIs in the next cycle reversing some of the current ones, then new bonuses for reaching them. Repeat.

For the UX designer this is totally acceptable. They lose 10% to gain 100%.

FPGAs are neither here nor there and will always be niche. If you need the same thing many times you make dedicated silicon. If you need many different things available all at once you use a normal CPU. Only if ASICs are too expensive and C

These people need an multimodal AI assistant that does geometrically correctly OCR of the page s screenshot and then determines the appropriate number of spaces and sizes for the spaces to accurately right-align the text.

Why should they care about non-users. Offering our even mentioning choice only creates uncertainty and confusion in potential customers.

Do the benchmarks reflect real-world usability? My feeling is that the benchmark result numbers stop working above 75%. In a real problem you may need to get 100 things right in a chain which means a 99% chance of getting each single one co

It's most likely that technical problems are turned into organization departements. The people making the decisions lack the knowledge and tools to solve them efficiently. They gain nothing from solving the problem itself but they gain
