Both articles by the same person.

I am not Tech but some things seemed obvious to me. It is much more complicated to drive a car on the highways then it is to fly an airplane or run a train.

Software or Hardware first when you update the software there is a schism of sorts that cannot be the most efficient without both being updated.. may be particularly in the case of software firs

it would seem to me that trans would be the simplest thing for computer management and I don't see it happening
.
With trains and planes the liabilities are obvious. So, self-driving cars depends upon the person buying getting the wool pulled over his eyes.

I'd read that one before as well. The main thing that leap out at me was the NVDA stock chart and the claim that it was related to AI. It was primarily related to crypto, same problem AMD had there.

But then the rest of the article seemed confused too. It really not making the argument against AI Inference specific architectures, it really just against standalone chips. Well, duh, yes we know that SoCs dominate most applications, so an AI block on a SoC is likely the high volume solution for most things.

I actually don't see a problem between the two articles. Groq designs will likely end up as blocks in SoCs.
