SUPPORT INDEPENDENT REPORTING: store.gamersnexus.net (emails will go out with digital wallpapers to all who bought a backer tier as soon as tiers close next week!). Grab a Retro IO coaster pack here: store.gamersnexus.net/products/gn-drink-retro-io-coaster-pack-4-custom-3d-coasters-100x100mm
The last few weeks have been chaos for the AI industry as it has grappled with sudden stock drops and climbs. The end result has been a foundation called into question as people have looked more closely at the viability of all the various promises and deals. In this, we dig through recent news and podcast appearances by AI company CEOs and through their commitments (or, in the case of Jensen, non-commitments) to understand the situation better. We also talk about the rumors of a canceled RTX 50 Super series GPU launch and delayed RTX 60 series graphics card release.
