An honest question:
Is all this "neural", artifical software stuff a stop-gap to backfill lack of hardware growth?
Haven't seen much news on where Nvidia is headed with enthusiast hardware next. Nobody has.
It's all AI these days. Where does Neural AI meet the actual hardware? No more groups of RT transistors in hardware? RT hardware plus neural software? Different hardware for neural and no more RT? Stop insulting our intelligence Nvidia..
Previous posts mention that this stuff arises from time-to-time as new features but this seems more like "we're just trying to keep up with...something".
Opinion: Can y'all pick a term other than "neural"? It makes me think of Elon Tusk playing with primates. Is the joke on us now?
The people trying to argue with you are doing a bang-up job of proving you’re right.
This is it exactly, in other words.
No one knows how NVIDIA is going to deal with hard limits on the methods of improvement that have kept NVIDIA growing as a company… least of all NVIDIA.
So, they’re doing what tons of other flailing companies are doing: pivoting to buzzwords like “AI” and its close kin as a smokescreen. None of these companies know how any of this stuff would help. They’re casting about for vague promises to make to shareholders and the industry press, which they rightly believe will be all but forgotten in a year’s time.
It was NFTs before this. Now it’s this nonsense. And in six to twelve months, they’ll be on to the new nonsense. But those limits will still be there, company valuation or no.
