Huawei Reportedly Building Proper GPUs for All Tasks—Beyond AI

Already AMD and Apple can emulate almost any game on the market, in order for their graphics processors to deal with the data however it prefers. Huawei makes chips that are comparable to middle of the road, last generation, i5 chips, and can't possibly catch up with the likes of Nvidia, AMD, and Intel for hardware, but this knocks the legs out from under them.

Graphics cards can cost up to $400,000 and, today, generally range from about $100-6,000 dollars, and a lot of that cost is simply due to the demand out-stripping the supply. Starting with the servers, their new emulator for AI tasks is all they need to emulate anything, and sell hardware for a fraction of the cost, driving down the price. Sadly, bit coin and AI have driven up the cost of computing for everyone, but all the signs are the computing price bubble is about to collapse.

There's only so much compute power that almost anyone needs for running a business, and its about the same requirements as creating your own AI or Star Trek holodeck, about 260 teraflops. Next generation All-In-Wonder chips by Intel and AMD will meet those requirements, and the price wars should begin. Everyone's been building up to this for years, waiting for the newest 2d transistors to make it cheaper than ever. Intel and AMD are using chip stacking, just to make cheaper powerhouses, but putting it all on one chip is cheaper still.
