Top Story
- How it started: Exports of Nvidia's RTX 4090 to China will be banned starting November 17 following existing bans on high-end Nvidia AI cards. (Tom's Hardware)
- How it's going: Chinese factories are dismantling the RTX 4090s on their production lines and turning them into high-end AI cards. (WCCFTech)
So... You banned these products from being exported to the country that manufactures them?
Smart.
(The chips are made in Taiwan, and manufacturing of the cards will likely move to Taiwan as well, but there were a lot of chips already in China set to be turned into gaming cards and now destined for the AI market.)
Tech News
- Idaho National Laboratory has been hacked by gay furries. (The Register)
That's kind of embarrassing, but the furries have offered them a deal:The self-styled furry hackers meanwhile have offered to remove the staff records if the lab performs experiments that at best could be described as highly irregular.
You fools. You don't want Idaho for that. You want Omaha.
"We're willing to make a deal with INL. If they research creating IRL catgirls we will take down this post," the group said. The creation of real cat-human female hybrids is a frequently posted meme in certain corners of the internet, but it's not the laboratory's specialty.
- If your research data isn't giving you the results you need, try analysing it with ChatGPT. (Nature)
Your P-values hacked or double your money back.
- Anthony Levandowski is rebooting his AI church. (Bloomberg) (archive site)
It's not a cult. They're just devoted followers of CthulhuGPT and OpenDagon.
- That's enough internet for today. (Ars Technica)
Do not read before, during, or after eating. Not Ars Technica's fault this time either.
