It’s not pump and dump. The word AI may be meaningless nonsense but what technology underpins it and actually does will be with us for a long time. It is being baked into very common every day tools, and will definitely benefit from some form of hardware acceleration. It’s about as much of a fad as 3D acceleration, and just like 3D acceleration I don’t think Intel’s products will be a meaningful player.
The word Intel is what’s nonsense.
Nvidia is absolutely dominating AI at all scales. Intel is an also-ran.
Seriously by the time Intel catches up the fad will be over with all customers having used NVIDIA’s products instead.
nVidia’s new memory interconnect will ensure Intel never catches up.
They may be out of business before they can field a decent chip at this rate.
Nvida would be fucked if for whatever reason TSMC stopped making chips for them. We’ve had two black swans in the last 3 years (COVID, Ukraine), but apparently trillion dollar semiconductor companies with no fabs of their own (Nvidia) have nothing whatsoever to worry about.
We have had absolutely nothing to do with the current AI fad. We desperately want to be part of the current AI fad. Therefore, I will wishful thinking myself into believing we are absolutely central to the current AI fad, and our technology will absolutely provide the backbone for some market babble daydream in the future when AI moves off the big rigs and into PCs. We don’t know how this will happen. We don’t know why this will happen. We don’t even know if it’s possible for it to happen. By we will not stop until we force it to happen, reality be damned!
WE WILL MAKE MONEY ON THIS FAD!
Try to ignore the part where you see him sobbing as he walks away from the podium, repeating in a breathy whisper, “We will make money on this fad. Marketing and sales promised. We will make money on this fad.
Intel is needed for AI because AI can be trained on all of Intel’s bloviating about how needed they are for AI.
