Andor was worth the 250m they spent on it

Okay, so some of the advances that chatGPT uses (consumer GPUs for training) are even older? 😁

As far as I can find out, there was only one use of GPUs prior to alexnet for CNN, and it certainty didn’t have the impact alexnet had. Besides, running this stuff on GPUs not CPUs is a relevant technological breakthrough, imagine how slow chayGPT would be running on a CPU. And it’s not at all as obvious as it seems, most weather forecasts still run on CPU clusters despite them being obvious targets for GPUs.

It’s been a long road

AlexNet is related, it was the first use of consumer gpus to train neutral networks no?

ChatGPT didn’t begin 18 months ago, the research that it originates from has been ongoing for years, how old is alexnet?

Preemptive nuclear strikes on all gpu chip fabs? There’s only like 7 of them
