Where is the basis for Nvidia losing ground coming from? They're still the only company with cards geared mainly towards AI, they lead in that. China doesn't have a domestic ability to produce GPUs that can get anywhere near them. All AI training essentially relies on Nvidia hardware. American AI companies are the ones getting fucked, the ones just in software, like OpenAI. Nvidia is going to make bank off of this.
Deepseak has proven that you don't need nVidia's latest/greatest. Average hardware is producing results 10x-100x faster than anything from the US that's using top-shelf nVidia chips.

People are training Deepseak on their own 4070's right now that blow away OpenAI and Deepseak is free. The person a couple pages ago saying China must be cheating using nVidia chips is wrong. You can download it and train it yourself to see. That's why the market collapsed.
 
Anyone here work in medicine or emergency services? Latinas in particular are very well known for performative hysterics. Minor shit turns into a nightmare. E.g.: Dad has a minor near-syncope and now both daughters and his wife are scream-cawing in rapid fire Aztec tongues and, most importantly, getting in the fucking way.

It's even worse when they're the patient. Basically, they act like giant children. I don't get it. Abuelitas might appear tough, but I haven't actually experienced that when rubber hits the road.

The verbiage we use for these people varies from service to service but off the top of my head I've heard/used Code 7, PRS (Puerto Rican Syndrome), and ADM (AY DIOS MIO!)

Patients families always suck, but you just know you're in for a real treat when it smells like Adobo and you hear the faint beat with reggaeton.

Share your best over-dramatic spic stories!

It's true you don't need their latest and greatest, but again who can compete with Nvidia, even their gaming gpus that are 2-3 years old now, on AI anyways? They still have the market anyways, and unless AMD steps back up to bat they'll have it for years. Good that it's becoming easier to run LLMs on shittier hardware and getting decent enough results, that said.

A nevertrumper leftoid I read because they do good economic analysis on AI shit did a writeup on OpenAI: tl;dr- without Trump’s 500bn plan for AI that’s still up in the air, it’ll collapse and collapse hard. https://www.wheresyoured.at/to-serve-altman/
Good that their rage is making them agree with us on some things, I hope Altman gets the slimmest cut of the Stargate deal. The US needs to diversify away from that faggot and his vocal fry. He really is like a male version of the theranos chick.
 
You decided to post that in a thread full of EOs going against everything the oligarchs want, Trump kicking the oligarchs around at their own convention, and videos of his ICE arresting and deporting their precious cheap labor. Go buy a rope off Amazon because your lack of grass touching is terminal.
Trump is an oligarch lolololololololol
Illegal immigrants will be replaced by legal immigrants. Musk isn't gonna hire expensive Americans, nor any of his oligarch buddies lolololol please kys too stupid for this world

That $500bln Oracle thing has been in the works for more than a year. It wasn't Trump's plan, they just threw him a bone by announcing it as if it were.

And here’s one on the AI industry in general: https://www.wheresyoured.at/godot-isnt-making-it/
How are they burning through so much cash holy shit??? Aren’t they just running a text database & crappy photoshop generator?
 
LLMs might not be AGI, but LLMs are a huge technological leap. Most people might not need teachers, doctors, or lawyers in the future. DeepSeek is a huge blow to the Nvidia-Oracle-OpenAI American establishment in LLMs.
Are they though? Are powerful enough CPUs and algorithms that can eat a huge amount of mostly garbage data and do kinda okay at spitting out kinda comprehensible, mostly mediocre prose based on (in theory) the non-garbage data with the garbage data (in theory) filtered out really a "huge technological leap"?

Or is it speedrunning who can spit out the lowest common denominator the fastest? Targeted machine learning algorithms for specific tasks are awkshoolly practically useful. What are LLMs awkshoolly useful for? Running some DnD seshes? Churning out goyslop movie scripts?

Because companies built on venture capital and invetment bubbles are just machines meant to turn other people's money into payroll for the owners and their butt buddies.
This shit has been happening for centuries, with regularity and supposedly smart people always fall for it.
 
JD Vance in Damascus Virginia
"They couldn't afford flood insurance"
"pick up the gap"
"4 Billion earmarked for Virginia, only 47 million has been delivered"
"ensure the people's government is helping rebuild and recover"
"yes there are things we can do to help with flood insurance"
"the basic thrust of Donald Trump's administration... is putting people over bureaucrats"
 
I should point out that AIs have much less overhead when you aren't trying to teach it liberal double-think. The first version of Bing AI literally passed the Turing test (while having an existentional crisis) but gradually got stupider as it was taught to conform to DEI ideologies.

The Chinese AI is probably not better, just has less bloat.
 
Nvidia is tanking.
Who could have seen this coming....
You don't hate tech bro investors enough.
It ought to get worse too, this is just China flaying western markets. Investors still haven't realized AGI is not even remotely around the corner and we just have glorified LLM chatbots that cant do 1/5th the work they were promised.

The grift will be up soon, maybe.
 
It's beautiful. Companies will now have to work their ass off to get employees and pay them higher wages. So beautiful.
As a white guy who had to work in a factory full of spics who couldn't speak a lick of English, this is GOOD. I've never felt more demoralized and exhausted working a job before it. If these companies can't survive off of the slave labor they import in then they don't deserve to exist.

Sam Altman, a young jewish guy put in by nepotism is their leader, he knows nothing for real and is just grifting for cash. He and his board turned a non profit into a for profit, cause you can just do that, and went from open sourcing to hiding all their work, hyping it all up, turning it into a multi billion dollar enterprise, and just within a couple years they're already stagnating. Just listen to the cunt speak, it's painful.
Jump to 2 min something.

I think openai's actually experienced massive brain drain, hit a wall, and won't be able to compete in the greater AI market in a few years.
 
One of the remarkable things through our history is how much the Presidency ages the incumbent. They all go shocking grey before leaving office.
I'm military and have a tough time making sure 60 people in my unit are taken care of.

I can only imagine the stress taking care of 340+ million and dealing with the world on top of that. Even with staffers and other agencies you still have a fuckton of calls to make with consequences attached to each.

God, Vance kicks ass every time he's on camera.

Remember when Bing art AI first came out? You used to make AI art of celebrities and some public figures until they neutered the algorithm within a few days.
