@Nickelback People don't know this, but they're called Nickelback because they're broke and they legit need it back.

Wait wait wait waaait a second....
He's saying he wants his $500,000 engineer to actually cost him $750,000 by using $250,000 worth of AI tokens.
Wasn't AI supposed to make things cheaper, not cost 50% more?

Jensen Huang: "If that $500,000 engineer did not consume at least $250,000 worth of tokens, I am going to be deeply alarmed. This is no different than a chip designer who says 'I'm just going to use paper and pencil. I don't think I'm going to need any CAD tools.'"

@Rahll watch the video; it's all about IQ/creativity/novelty which is rare thus worth the cost
English

@PetruskaHQ @LanYunfeng64 I have a bridge to sell you. Wait, no, 3-5 bridges.

@aenigme How does a journalist reporting on a study negate the study, lmao.
English
@Rahll LOL he's a "storyteller"
That was your best, Reid? A podcaster that tells bedtime stories?

English

@LanYunfeng64 You really think each engineer is meaningfully increasing their output by 3-5x, and not only that, but maintaining any semblance of quality? Hoookay.
English

@Rahll The math isn't +k cost. It's 3-5x output per engineer.
Huang's point: underutilizing AI is like hiring a cinematographer who only uses natural light.
You're paying for the tool anyway. The gap is in adoption speed.

@Rahll @Bigpooppoop20 They’ll put out the 6090 in 2027 or 28. It’s always a few years between generations. I upgrade every launch.
English
@Rahll Do you think power tools make mechanics slower? Are you really this dumb?
English

@SplinterGoggles @Bigpooppoop20 Remember when they delayed the new gaming cards because of all the enterprise AI stuff? Have fun using the same card for the next 5 years.
English

@Rahll @Bigpooppoop20 I can already run some pretty powerful models on my 5090 and that’s today.
English

@Rahll If he doubles his output using AI, that’s a bargain, dumbass
English
@Rahll Because that $250,000 in tokens will save him $1,000,000 in labor.
How do people still not understand this basic concept?
English

@SplinterGoggles @Bigpooppoop20 Lmao, "Just give it 5 or 10 more years, you'll see!"
English

Somewhat performant models are already being run on iPhones. Give it 5 more years of model optimization and intelligence improvements, combined with new hardware and it’ll be easy for a Desktop or MacBook.
Like I said worst case, buy a $2k GPU in 5 years and spend 3k on electricity. It’s nothing compared to developer cost.
And if it’s not 5 years then 10. It’s soon in any case.

@studiohoofnail @GeorgeCrudo Right? Did they think people wouldn't pick up on that?
English

@GeorgeCrudo Once I saw the nvidia person demonstrating the tech and having to turn it off in between moving around the game world only so he could show off the pre approved spots, I knew DLSS 5 was completely cooked
English

who could have seen any of this coming except all of us following GenAI for the last 4 years lol
Osvaldo Pinali Doederlein@opinali
Daniel got important clarifications from NVIDIA. TLDR: the "DLSS5 skeptical" were right about *everything*. 1⃣ It's a 2D AI Filter. Input is only color buffer & motion vectors. The model doesn't see geometry, lights, PBR properties, normals, anything🧵 youtu.be/D0EM1vKt36s
