Nvidia’s AI customers are scared to be seen courting other AI chipmakers for fear of retaliatory shipment delays, says rival firm
That should be your very first clue that Nvidia needs to be broken up into smaller, competing companies.
And CUDA forcefully open sourced.
Yikes, how Draconian. Id be fucking pissed if someone came in and forcibly open sourced a product I had invested millions in developing.
Hey if Nvidia bothered to support OpenCL/SYCL/Vulkan Compute I’d back off but they know they own the space and don’t care about any API but their own.
Wait until you hear about generic trademarks
If you took even $1 of grants funded by taxpayers, will you take back your words?
Lol hilarious watching companies be ruthless then scramble to keep shit together since they only want to line exec pockets and don’t tackle real issues
Fuck them, their customers, fuck their execs 🤞
Monopolies gonna monopoly. Fuck Jensen.
AMD had decades to see where the wind was blowing and offer a first-party CUDA bridge.
NVIDIA earned this monopoly through business savvy predictions.
Ever heard of OpenCL? AMD started that project. CUDA is closed source.
What kind of hedge fund, MBA, anti-consumer chud counts it as a point AGAINST a company for developing open source technologies when they could have easily closed their IP warchest and offered a first-party CUDA bridge? AMD actively chose to embrace the open source world rather than further enabling a CUDA monopoly. IMO, every computer user in the world owes AMD a debt of gratitude for their contributions to open source technologies like OpenCL.
I can tell you’re a Windows user because if you used Linux for even a single day (you know, the kernel that is the industry standard for virtually ALL internet servers including Microsoft’s), you’d know all too well that NVidia is objectively hostile to open source technologies and the consumers who are unwitting victims of their anti-competitive, closed source technologies.
Good business sense in the past does not give them a free pass to now assfuck every consumer (both individual and B2B) so he can buy more leather jackets. Fuck wealth-extracting corporate monopolies, fuck Jensen. Do not support such behavior.
fuck Jensen
I never asked for this
Too bad!
Built? Sure. Earned? That’s a stretch. Deserved? Fuck no.
Deserved never once appeared in my comment so idk what you’re trying to say.
We live in a capitalist society. Deserved? Probably not. Earned? They’re one of the most valuable companies in the world for a reason.
Wasn’t Nvidia the one that was caught intentionally doing things to break games on competitors drivers with their sponsored games?
Earned isn’t the right word when you have to do shitty things and cut your competition down…
I think we found Robin William’s character in Hook before he went to Never Never Land. 🤣
If I didn’t live in this sick society, I might not believe such a sociopath existed. I bet OP also praises Nestle, Monsanto, and Theranos for their business savvy.
The first user I’ve ever encountered with literally every single comment they ever made showing negative points.
Yeah I saw that too! A super conservative, tech bro chud troll account for sure.
through business savvy predictions.
More like through shoving its solutions onto everyone around.
And nope, “earn” is a wrong word.
If only there were some sort of anti-monopoly laws that existed and were actually enforced…
