A former colleague of mine, who moved to Qualcomm, once told me this:
“If my old colleagues knew how hard Qualcomm pushes on pricing, they would probably cry.”
That is the brutal reality of business.
But honestly, is this really just a Qualcomm story? I do not think so.

Qualcomm is a piece of shit supplier to anyone trying to innovate on the edge, especially startups. My client is trying to buying ~500,000 of SoCs and wants them to be American because patriotism. Instead Qualcomm has them waiting months to even get pricing, just to be quoted with 80% margins at lead times that are not competitive with overseas suppliers. They're about to ship the M1: 37g, IMU, Camera, NPU, CPU, WiFi/BT, entirely hardware synchronized and designed for mass-manufacturing. Hundreds of thousands pre-ordered, scaling to millions, for next-gen devices for robotics, automotive, night vision... Client wants to build American but the way Qualcomm is engaging right now means we have to keep building perception and compute systems with overseas suppliers. Mediatek priced it better and more competitive lead times. The China suppliers such as Rockchip are even faster but cant do that.

We recently submitted a confidential S-1. We expect it to leak so we’re just announcing it. We have not decided on timing yet; it may be a while because there are things we want to do that are likely easier as a private company. But it’s a complicated set of tradeoffs and this gives us the option to go public sooner if that ends up being best.
This announcement is being made pursuant to Rule 135 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. Any offers, solicitations of offers to buy, or any sales of securities will be made in accordance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

What a dumbass CEO — he violated the NDA and went public with the contract himself, and now he’s completely ruined the company. What an absolute moron?

In the end, WSB was right again. I really didn’t expect POET to actually be a supplier to Marvell…

SpaceXAI and @cursor_ai are now working closely together to create the world’s best coding and knowledge work AI. The combination of Cursor’s leading product and distribution to expert software engineers with SpaceX’s million H100 equivalent Colossus training supercomputer will allow us to build the world’s most useful models. Cursor has also given SpaceX the right to acquire Cursor later this year for $60 billion or pay $10 billion for our work together.

@jukan05 you think he does it out of the kindness of his heart? the newsletter arguably the most valuable asset they have and it has nothing to do with revenue, it’s control of the narrative
English
SemiAnalysis will generate $100 million in revenue this year, and the newsletter accounts for only a very small portion of that.
This is something I’ve been thinking for a while: SemiAnalysis’s newsletter is basically a charitable project. He could shut it down at any time and it wouldn’t really matter.

@__tinygrad__ @Stefano02545325 @AMD @AnushElangovan @LisaSu yeah, i think a lot of people are gonna be upset when they spin it up and realize what they actually got for $1000.

makes sense, the only reason to buy a B70 or any other “pro” card is if $INTC stock paid for it

.@AMD @AnushElangovan @LisaSu should learn a lesson from the Intel Arc Pro B70. Release a 9070XT with 32GB of RAM for a reasonable price!
Nobody wants blowers, nobody wants "pro" market segmentation, and nobody wants Intel. AMD can beat NVIDIA by making normal GPUs with big RAM.

i remember getting so excited for the B60 hoping they’d price it under $500. silly me
