This is peak comedy

Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
I look forward to seeing it. NVIDIA needs real competition for their own benefit if not the market as a whole. I want a richer ecosystem where Intel, AMD, NVIDIA and other players all join in with the winner being the consumer. From a selfish point of view I also want to do more home experimentation. LLMs are so new that you can make breakthroughs without a huge team but it really helps to have hardware to make it easier to play with ideas. Consumer card memory limitations are hurting that right now.

This is exactly the void I'm trying to fill.
I can't find your company, what are you trying to do to solve this?
That said, if you're on the inside, like I am, and you talk to people at AMD (just got off two separate back to back calls with them), rest assured, they are dedicated to making this stuff work.
Part of that is to build a developer flywheel by making their top end hardware available to end users. That's where my company Hot Aisle comes into play. Something that wasn't available before outside of the HPC markets, is now going to be made available.
