  • The AI cards prioritize compute density instead of frame rate, etc so you can’t directly compare price points between them like that without including that data. You could cluster gaming cards, though, using NVLink or the AMD Fabric thing. You aren’t going to get any where near the same performance, and you are really going to rely on quantization to make it work, but depending on your use case in self-hosting you probably don’t need a $30,000 card.

    Its not a scam, but its also something you probably don’t need.



  • I think the article is pretty accurate about what to expect. The author’s view is grounded in reality. They are a business, but that doesn’t mean “the capitalists are in control”. I would like to think commenters have researched Accel’s prior fundings, but I know that is not likely. In short, they do not attempt to control companies. In 300 fundings, they have never attempted to take a majority stake in any company and do not hold majority stake in any company. They don’t do acquisitions.

    Accel is probably one of the few equity groups that isn’t pure fucking evil. If anyone wants to pick a fight over that, fine, but at least research that company first.
