Is that AI / compute driven?
- rowanG077 25d agoAI in the sense of LLMs is too new to really make an impact yet. But it is compute driven. Modern science and engineering would be impossible as we do it now without high-end compute.
- brookst 25d agoIn part, sure. From drug discovery to crop yields to education, compute and AI have material benefits. It's kind of shocking that anyone could doubt this.

- AbsurdCensor 24d agoAbsolutely computer driven. It's hard to say the impact of AI, let's give it the same 25 years of computer advancements.
