if openAI starts making their own jalapeno chips, maybe intel gets a comeback printing the jalapeno chips for openAI? because a new worry for intel and AMD is going to be when openAI and anthropic just design all their own hardware, and dont need any of the "historical expertise" those companies have. so then the only value is "who has the physical value that can make these designs".

so intel took the hit now, AMD might take the hit later as they're kinda...... mostly a software company, that contracts to hardware companies.

hearing that google switched to arm for their servers because it was much more efficient for compute vs power used per space is what made me finally think everything might be switching to arm. it took apple a bit of time to switch over, software growing pains for users early on, but my gosh have their products just continued to take off.

so now mobile, desktop and server all looking good with ARM? i can't see why it would go backwards at all.

my non tech neighbors and cousins have 10 year old computers. they buy them like their car. they run them both until it wont turn on. and when they break, they will only spend $500 on the next one.

and that's fine. just surprised the hell out of they still used a black friday special laptop from 10 years ago. that thing is special alright....

halogen. made by a user, one of the early, best model serving things for a strixhalo. amd community engaging person saw it was well liked, and sent that developer 2 strix halos to help them develop it further.

ive seen that same amd community manager engage on reddit and actively pull in changes into lemonade server, for better ways to serve up models best on the strixhalo hardware. so they're accepting community help where it helps.
