It’s actually even dumber than this because it was OpenAI that made the purchase with no plan for how to actually use the wafers. NVIDIA could actually do something with them.
Ok, how is this not illegal? Buying up all the supply to prevent competitors from buying any, even when you can’t use it yourself. There’s gotta be some anticompetitive regulation that would cover this
Gonna need a functional government with a functioning regulatory body for that.
Edit: also, Congress seems to be able to just lasso anyone and pull them into a hearing to make a show of damn near anything. We could really use one of those for this (and many other) boondongles right now.
