    Billionaire… For now.

    If Nvidia tanks he’ll be a measly hunded-millionaire.

    P.s. large margin of error I have not deeply analysed Jensen Wang’s stock holdings for a shitpost.

    If AI does not yet work for a particular task, he said, employees should “use it until it does”

    Uh, using the AI doesn’t train the AI, bud.

      Genuinely, this is the driving misconception people have about AIs right now. That somehow everybody using them is making them smarter, when really it’s leading to model collapse

    It wasn’t that long when Jensen was just the funny guy who’d come out and announced a bunch of cards and say some wacky shit, everyone outside of the tech press would ignore him and that was that.

    Kinda miss those days

    I would not be surprised in the slightest if the cause of Nvidia drivers being absolute dogshit lately is because this absolute fucking MORON is forcing the devs to use AI to code the DRIVERS. THE ONE THING YOU DO NOT WANT FUCKING AI MEDDLING WITH.

    If Microsoft did it with Windows 11 (which resulted in various SSD failures for a bunch of people), I have no doubt in my mind that Nvidia does it too.

        In a word - instability. Downgrading driver versions for Nvidia cards is not an uncommon troubleshooting step now, which is not ideal.

          AMD had poor drivers because they were inexperienced

          Nvidia has poor drivers because they’re shoving AI in all their holes

          That’s binary blob drivers for you, you just try different versions and hope it gets better someday.

          One of the big advantages to open source drivers is that you can do a bisect to track some new breakage back to a specific patch. Sure, most people don’t know how to do that, but there’s a lot of people who can. And then the problem gets fixed for everybody.

    I think every task that can be automated with LLMs is already automated. It’s just that it’s a very short list.

        While I agree CEOs don’t do much work. We still need a person there, because code can’t be held accoun- nevermind, that ship has long sailed.

    Well, yeah. Obviously, someone is going to have to unfuck everything AI fucked up…so, in a way, using AI is kind of like adding a layer of job security to your job.

        Reminds of when companies offshored their whole dev team and just sent requirements to them thinking they’d make code cheaper.

        I mean, it was cheaper. It’s just that it was also awful. It was basically like firing all your senior devs and giving their work to randos who can’t code, but with plausible deniability.

      Oh, it’s all centered around the core concept that they’re better than you, and consequences can’t touch them.

      Now that you have a baseline of their mindset, some of their decisions…are still really fucking stupid.

      Yeah. Nothing changed there. They just don’t feel the consequences of their own destruction.
