So they will force Apple to remove the geofence - and then they will proceed to sue them for selling unlicensed medical equipment.

And yet, with all of the documentation about Pleiades supercomputer, I find no mention of them using FGPAs, it is primarily just a large cluster of Intel XEON processor nodes - with the newest nodes in the system also using NVIDIA GPUs https://www.nas.nasa.gov/hecc/resources/pleiades.html (And...

I would not bet on this system being the top for AI processing. It may have 4608 H100 chips - but Microsoft's Eagle system at #3 has 14,400 H100s...

Given that it is the buzzword of the month across the industry, and they have a massive lead in that type of workload, they would be foolish not to push it as far as they can.

I find this incredibly funny. Musk wants to make an algorithm that will evaluate the truth of a statement. The Turing machine, the spiritual predecessor of all of computing, mathematically proved that there will be logical statements that cannot be proven true or false in finite time. In other...

One thing a lot of people are forgetting here is the inflation for the last few years. $499 in October of 2020 is roughly equal to $575 in current dollar value. So adjusted for inflation it is only around a $25 increase.

Because die size is such a great comparison when dealing with chips that are manufactured under very different processes. The RTX 30XX series were manufactured under 10nm process, while the 40XX are under a 5nm process - so the 295mm² 4070ti has 26% more transistors than the 628mm² 3090ti.
