> Remember that Moore's Law is over in the sense that transistors are not getting cheaper generation after generation, that is why the NVIDIA 40xx series is such a disappointment to most people.

I am unconvinced by the idea of trying to redefine Moore's Law to be about MSRP. The NVIDIA H100 has twice the FLOPS of the A100 on a smaller die. That's Moore's Law, full stop. When NVIDIA has useful competition in the AI space, they'll be forced to cut prices, as has reliably been the case for every semiconductor vendor for the last 60 years.

Agreed. We need Intel to get the software side of ARC together. Or we need something like the unified ram or apple silicon. Apple have accidental stumbled into being the most competitive way to run llms with their 192gb studio.

Yeah, everyone has their own "Moore's Law" that's over, but original Moore's is kicking along.
