    I'd recommend looking for other sources of information if you're relying on someone who co-authored the paper that introduced the most misleading and uninformed term of the LLM era…

    NV1, not RV1. 3dfx Voodoo cards were initially more successful, but I don’t think anything not actually used for deep learning should count.

    And I find multiple monitors are extremely useful. Especially if your monitor is only 27’’.

    It’s not compelling enough unless we find out who was behind it, which is probably unlikely.

    It probably depends on which ones they have encountered in real life. From a Google image search, it seems that less than half are.

    Yes, they certainly should for the sake of their own research. Considering aphantasia could increase the effect size in their studies.

    > 2. Do people with aphantasia dream in images? Yes, many reports suggest that most do. But I haven’t seen any rate comparisons with people who don’t have it.
