What if we stopped using GPUs?
Original: What if we stopped using GPUs? [video]
A new video essay asks what computing would look like if the industry moved away from GPUs, questioning how dependent AI and graphics workloads have become on a small number of chip suppliers. The piece is drawing attention on Hacker News, where readers are debating the economics of GPU dependence, alternatives like CPUs, ASICs and emerging accelerators, and what a shift could mean for companies such as Nvidia.
Why now: Concerns about GPU costs, supply and Nvidia's dominance in AI have made alternatives to GPUs a lively debate.
