    They really aren’t GPUs in the traditional sense. You can’t plug them into computers and play games or do rendering. They are meant to sit in datacenter racks and do AI inference, so they are E-waste for any other application. Since we don’t have enough demand for inference they will end up on dumps.

      I really wonder why they’re being called GPUs and not NPUs — they aren’t primarily designed to process graphics (although they can).
