The affairs don't matter. The real problem (and why he resigned) is that Nvidia has been selling GPU's to China through companies in Singapore despite strict US export restrictions. The asian woman he had an affair with had a company with her husband that sold these products from Singapora to China, which directly links him to the smuggling, something Nvidia has publicly denied ferociously all this time. Several key members of the US government have looked the other way (like Howard Lutnick), but might no longer be able to. If Nvidia was investigated it could seriously jeapordize a large amount of their oversea sales and could cause many issues domestically.

    Commercialization, it’s doesn’t create those problems it simply highlights them.

    Going to have to disagree with you on that. Many of the problems it causes (rampant ads, algorithms tuned for maximum retention and engagement) were directly caused by the commercialization.

    @abbadon420@sh.itjust.works are you sure this video hasn't been generated with AI? In that case please tag it as required by rule 9

    As @DarkTimez@lemmy.blahaj.zone pointed out, the channel seems to only post generated content

    The video looks consistent so it's hard to tell for sure. It could be that they copied real footage from somewhere else and posted it with the rest.

    Timeline:

    1. The first mention I could find was the AI channel on 7 November: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/tyjwfPPyxuo
    2. Then it was posted on X on 8 November: https://x.com/skithedream_/status/2119550533258387809
    3. The AI channel posted a short with a similar situation on 9 November: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/eNeKJ8vhm34
    4. It was posted to 9Gag on 10 November https://9gag.com/gag/aj7YDwx

    I also find a similar video posted on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/61594683694701/videos/ocean/1395503672656845/

    So far I think it's AI generated. Keeping this up for a bit longer to see if anyone else can spot a definitive sign it's fake and as warning of how realistic AI content has gotten.

    The Port That Does Not Exist - Port 0 is the port you are not supposed to use, so nobody looks there. So we put an IRC network on it. Then I got curious if anyone else had, & scanned all of IPv4 for port 0. Turns out we weren't alone, & some of our neighbors really shouldn't be there.

    Never used them because their software wasn't open source, and thus meant I would be unable to switch to another provider. Seems I made the right choice.

    Americans now oppose new AI data centers by roughly three to one, ranking them below coal plants and nuclear power stations, and towns across the country are passing moratoriums faster than tech companies can build. In this video, I look at the data center backlash: what holds up in the complaints about water, noise, and electricity bills, why the tech industry’s cash offers keep failing, and how xAI powered its Memphis supercomputer with a fleet of unpermitted gas turbines. Then we follow the money, from CoreWeave’s distressed credit default swaps to the investment-grade bonds landing in pension funds, and ask who is actually holding the risk if the AI boom turns out to be a bubble, with a look back at the railroad bubble of 1873.
