It’s literally AI slop. Ignoring the subject of the article (which is whatever), the article is clearly entirely written by AI. The AI writing style is horrendous. “It’s not blah. It’s blah.”, “it’s genuinely ”

Its not AI writing. It reads exactly like someone casually talking. Its consice and to the point. There is no "its not x, its y"

He has been blogging dor dam near 6 years you can go read his older posts the writing is consistent.

But here is the thing: this is a Volta GPU with 16GB of HBM2 memory, 5120 CUDA cores, and I picked it up for about £150 on eBay. The compute is still real. The VRAM is still real. And the memory bandwidth is where it gets genuinely surprising.

It’s AI slop. You’re blind.
