AI's Coming Reality Check: When The Physics Finally Hits The Hype
Authored by Chris MacIntosh vis InternationalMan.com,
In five years, we'll all likely be chuckling and shaking our heads over AI. Because today, the tech feels free and limitless, doesn't it?
People are generating endless content: images, videos, memes, code snippets, social posts. Companies are bolting AI onto products by default, the way every Fortune 500 company suddenly discovered they were “sustainable” five years ago.
There's much deliberation on AI right now, and it splits into two main camps of thesis:
The majority — those who will die on its hill of promise, convinced we're months away from effective altruism, UBI, and sentient toasters.
And the minority — usually older, more experienced types — who don't fully understand it, but look at numbers, remember the dot-com bust, and think this rhymes. We'll leave that debate to the dinner parties.
What interests us is something more boring. Physics. ...

Beyond Nvidia: how US export curbs are forcing China to redesign its AI chip industry (SCMP)
|
|
|
Under the weight of sustained US export controls on advanced semiconductors, China's AI chipmakers are battling to forge a self-reliant silicon ecosystem capable of breaking Nvidia's stranglehold on the market.
At the centre of this rivalry is a fundamental design debate: Should the country rely on the versatile graphics processing unit (GPU) or pivot to the highly specialised application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC)?
The fight is no longer about finding a single Nvidia clone; it is about......
