I don't think 2.8T market cap company combining with 1.1T market cap company can be called an "acquisition", nor three letter agencies would ever approve such a deal.

> Nvidia’s Fermi architecture was ambitious and innovative, offering advances in GPU compute along with features like high tessellation performance. However Terascale 2’s more traditional approach delivered better power efficiency.

Fermi was given the nickname "Thermi" for a good reason. AMD marketing had a field day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QkyfGJgcwQ

It didn't help that the heatsink of the GTX 480 resembled the surface of a grill: https://i.imgur.com/9YfUifF.jpg

Microsoft might start making their own silicon like everybody else.

It was just published a couple hours ago. Chips and cheese usually go back in time and post deep dives into old chips, not everything has to be cutting edge to get an insightful article.

Samsung has a fab. Anyone knows why they don't want to enter the game and create an AI chip.

I hope not, given Microsoft's typical strategy of: Embrace Extend Extinguish

It also means less competition. Corporations like Google, Microsoft, Amazon are embodiment of what is wrong with late stage capitalism and the result of lack of regulation.

If anything Microsoft and corporations of similar size should have been broken up decades ago.

They have too much power, they don't answer to anybody and are a form of unelected government that rules digital world.

They have the Azure Maia 100 (AI accelerator) and Azure Cobalt 100 (128 core ARM Neoverse derived cpu).
