IOSG OFR 13th Panel | GPU Symphony: Decentralized Compute Power (IOSG Ventures)
“As AI gets importance, I don’t think Nvidia is going to stay dominant player in terms of hardware. I think it’s going to get significantly diversified — and has to, because you have one company… I don’t want to live in a digital feudalism where you have one digital lord giving us what we need. Today getting chips is so hard — even the richest people in the world; Elon Musk is famous for saying getting GPUs is harder than getting drugs, even though that’s a low bar in San Francisco.” — 00:23:16
Context: Concluding his hardware-diversification argument; also cites Groq ASICs and Extropic’s “thermodynamic computing” as innovative chips coming to market.
