    They're all avatars of nvidia which themselves
    are avatar of TSMC and the silicon chip
    manufacturing industry. There are underlying
    technological current are driving cultural movement ...
    Oh no "Culture is downstream from technology"
    that is the most cyberpunk thing I've ever heard

    CULTURE IS DOWNSTREAM FROM TECHNOLOGY

    I couldn't find it, but there's a moment where

    spoilerCory Doctorow discusses how underlying technology
    manufacturer end up controlling their downstream
    consumer application of the technology in a
    kind of "balance of power" of technology

    but I can't find it, I thought it was especially insightful

    In anycase there are the following links
