Goodbye to Graphics: How GPUs Came to Dominate Compute and AI
Gone are the days when the sole function for a graphics chip were, graphics. Let's explore how the GPU evolved from a modest pixel pusher into a blazing powerhouse of floating-point computation.
Google updates Search to fight low-quality spammy content, doesn't mention "AI" at all
An effort to neutralize "emerging tactics" designed to game search results
A hot potato: While we wait for the global revolution that AI algorithms will surely bring, Google is trying to survive the incoming spam-apocalypse enabled by automatic content generation at scale. The company is seemingly improving web search with more stringent rules against meaningless web pages, but their track record for the past few years is far from positive.
AMD to introduce AI-based upscaling, potentially matching DLSS
Something to look forward to: AMD's FSR image upscaling technology has avoided using AI until now, which has been a double-edged sword in its competition against Nvidia's DLSS and Intel's XeSS. A recent interview with AMD's CTO indicates that the company plans to pivot sharply toward AI in 2024, with gaming upscaling as one area of focus.
Researchers prove they can exploit chatbots to spread AI worms
Hackers could deploy the worms in plain text emails or hidden in images
In context: Big Tech continues to recklessly shovel billions of dollars into bringing AI assistants to consumers. Microsoft's Copilot, Google's Bard, Amazon's Alexa, and Meta's Chatbot already have generative AI engines. Apple is one of the few that seems to be taking its time upgrading Siri to an LLM and hopes to compete with an LLM that runs locally rather than in the cloud.

But not everyone is praising Jensen Huang and his firm. After a rival chip maker accused it of delaying orders of AI GPUs to customers who are courting other suppliers, a former AMD vice president has called Team Green "the GPU cartel."
