    I'm expecting we'll see the same dynamic we saw with solar panels and EVs. Once Chinese companies ramp up production, there's going to be a flood of affordable GPUs. The big question is whether Western countries will ban them for 'national security' reasons.

    What for? So devs on Windows can test code / models before they ship it to a GPU farm?

    The actual farms run on Linux, right?

    A microslop certification is not the sign of quality that they are trying to pretend it is.
