All you see in the tech websites is AI, AI, AI, AI, AI..............
Be sure to have lots of PRC Chinese grad students working on it!
Perhaps they should invest in providing a useful education to their enrollees so they can get jobs and pay off their loans?
Want a real life example to slap you in the face? How about the California super train? Where the hell is that one?
China is getting so far ahead of us technology-wise on AI and everything else that we are in deep trouble. And they do everything at a much lower cost. All while we import mass quantities of uneducated and low IQ third world people and push DEI policies. It’s really insane but thanks to the left that’s where things are heading.
Flushing money down the AI money pit
I’m no IT guy by any stretch, but I do know that AI is something to take seriously on many levels. I understand that the natural inclination is to distrust any govt funded project, and we should always be wary of bureaucratic boondoggles. But let’s see some facts and evaluations from those who know what they’re talking about.
A problem with our development of AI is the insistence of non-discriminatory. For example, Amazon developed a model that chose which applicants to hire. The problem was men were disproportionally chosen. To work around that complicated the model and reduced efficiencies of using the model. A country not bothered with “discrimination” has more efficient models (less time to develop and using less power) and greater productivity gain from the model.
They talk at cross purposes for some strange reason. The project to save all the sick people in the world is a go and Trump cut the budget. How odd.
Hell no they aren’t;
the taxpayer is!!!
Media keeps giving credit to the blood suckers instead of the truly blood sucked, the tax payer.
Yoy’ve been santa claused by force.
Must be buying this Super Computer on the discount rack...20 million is not a lot of money.
At least this project is not being built in one of the racist antisemitic poison ivy’s. Hopefully scholars can benefit from working there whether they are Jewish or not.
What we called a supercomputer when I was in engineering school, we now all carry in our pockets. And I’m young enough (barely) to have never learned to use a slide rule.
Google, xAI, Microsoft and Amazon all have this level of compute power.
Makes we wonder what they’re trying to figure out.
I remember in the early 1970s when the Cray was announced. Soon thereafter the favorite geek joke was, “Hey! You hear about the Cray? It came out of an infinite loop in fifteen minutes!”.
