something about all these nerds suddenly calling it “compute” has been really pissing me off lmao
They sound indistinguishable from a group of “hackers” from a bad 90s movie. Just throwing out buzzwords in a meaningless way.
that’s 1 trillion teraflops btw, it’s like 1 billion cutting edge GPUs for FP16. just the electricity, at 600 Watts (only the GPUs not including literally anything else, at perfect efficiency), that would be 600 gigawatts, or around 5250 TWh annually which is half the chinese grid, or 20% more than the entire US grid. at this point she could’ve said 1 morbillion, it doesn’t matter it’s just not going to happen.
EDIT: i forgot she said 10 yottaflops not 1 yottaflop. just multiply everything by 10. it still doesn’t matter it’s just not possible right now.
Or about 0.1mm/year of sea level rise, or 50 cubic kilometers of Antarctic ice melt, or one Hiroshima bomb every 2 minutes.
One gaming rig per child
Still can’t play Crysis on ultra settings.
Shouldn’t it be 10 trillion teraflops?
you’re right. i think i also underestimated the power of GPUs by a factor of 2. the point is that number is entirely out of the realm of feasibility right now unless she redefines what a flop is. it’s just shareholder talk to make the number go up.

We’re melting them as fast as we can, what more do you want?
Sure we can. Melt 'em faster!

I came here to say this 3 hours too late. Most valuable comment

Chinese Silicon can’t come soon enough
Yottaflops should be the name of a math rock band that plays in time signatures like 37/40.
What it actually means: 🤑
You want flops? I can give you flops. Duke Nukem Forever. Fallout 76. Tenet. What you need I got you
Megalopolis can power the entire market for another 5 years

This can be read as both hype and critique, which I think is neat.
This is the kind of technobabble they have in Farscape.
Twenty frelling microts? What is this dren?
