Text rendering sure has come a long way. Those topic links look absolutely horrendous.

AI definitely would have done better. This looks like a child drew a smiley face on a lump of clay by poking their fingers in it.

A perfect example of why calling it autopilot in the first place was a bad idea. The name misrepresents the feature, which is really just lane keeping and a few other minor things.

proton as leveraging open source to avoid dev costs

As a developer, I have no problem with this. Why do work that doesn't need to be done?

Damn, did they hire the Secret Service from Uvalde or something?

I'm making the claim that there is no such law that allows the MLB to prevent you from talking about a game. I'm not saying there is a law that's unenforceable.

Why can’t you keep your position consistent?

I'm not the person you were talking with earlier. I never mentioned AI, just the MLB copyright notice that you brought up.

I watched the first half of it on a plane ride and literally forgot about it until this comment. I don't think I'll ever see the ending

Copyright can't be applied to just talking about an event? MLB cannot copywrite facts such as who won a game or what occurred during the game. Their copywrite notice is not enforceable. https://medialoper.com/warning-those-copyright-warnings-may-not-be-entirely-accurate/

The only thing they can prevent is rebroadcasts and recordings of the game. Just talking about it is in no way related to copyright law.

My job has been to run things on GPUs for almost 10 years now. The only thing anyone practical is doing on that many GPUs is AI training, massive scientific simulations, or crypto mining. 1 or 2 of them is enough to run something like ChatGPT.

Real-time graphics it turns out don't scale well across multiple GPUs. There's a reason SLI has gone away for consumer GPUs. At the current ratio, each of those $3000+ GPUs is only driving 8000 pixels (assuming each led puck is being used as 1 pixel, given their size). It makes no sense other than bragging rights

Except the original pregnancy test screen would have been something like a 2 or 3 segment LCD. They don't need to display anything but yes or no.

It does seem suspiciously like they picked 150 completely arbitrarily to make the project sound impressive, when they could have easily done it with 20. I'm sure a bunch of people in the middle made a bunch of money off that transaction too. Or like you said, maybe this is Nvidia doing some guerrilla marketing

I don't know what they need so many GPUs for. There's 16 displays inside, and the sphere itself has fewer pixels than even 1 of the internal displays. You could probably run the sphere off a laptop if you aren't trying to do anything fancy.

Maybe they plan on doing crazy live simulations on it or something. I can't imagine what kind of displayed image would actually use all 150 of them. Nvidia A6000 cards are damn powerful.

I was on a road trip through the prairies and had to stop on the side of the road to watch the northern lights. The entire sky in all directions was lit up. I was able to take this shot with the big dipper visible.
