Nvidia has lost the hearts and minds - I'm not just not interested in or excited by anything Nvidia - there's a baseline expectation of their products being overpriced and aimed at stiffing the customer.

An outcome of greed.

what's the better alternative, DIY AMD? No, thanks. I'm interested in the result, not the process. In terms of robotic software there is just nobody close. Any attempt to port it to different hardware will be just a big pain and limited result at best. So NVidia looks to be the way to go till China catches up.
for basic AI and inference mac studios with 512 GB of ram can be a good alternative

honestly, seeing a company that craps so hard on a core customer group still succeed THAT much just because of some random trends is just sad. and yet people are still willing and continue to vote with their wallets (as the comment below was proving). what a mess
They're really the luckiest bastards lol. First crypto, then the "AI" craze...
success is the combination of luck and preparation. NVIDIA has been well prepared + anticipating deep learning to take off for a long while.
