- Praise: Nvidia's moves in robotics could open up new avenues, potentially offsetting any decline in their AI dominance — a smart pivot in a rapidly evolving field.
- Praise: Despite AMD's software struggles, there's a growing buzz about running large models on their hardware, hinting at a shift in the competitive landscape.
- Praise: Nvidia's entrenched software ecosystem in ML research is a significant advantage, despite the challenges of their CUDA environment — it's a tough game, but they have history on their side.
- Concern: Nvidia's current position feels precarious as they may have overextended themselves, especially with the risks of local model inference diminishing demand for their hardware.
- Concern: The concerns around exaggerated demand growth for compute suggest Nvidia's investment strategies could hit a wall — the future doesn't always align with the past.
- Concern: Many users find CUDA to be one of the worst development ecosystems — this could alienate developers and stifle innovation in the long run.
