    Last time I read something about this, they were still struggling massively with production. Yes, seems they’re able to manufacture those chips, but the yield is low, which makes these GPUs uneconomical. They were more a very expensive tech demo. But there isn’t a lot of detailed information out there. They might have made some progress since last year. I mean China isn’t stupid. And they can’t rely on Nvidia chips, so from their perspective there isn’t another way, they need to swallow that pill and invest whatever amount of money it takes. And I’m pretty sure they can do it. It’s just questionable whether they’re there yet and if they’re able to keep up. I have my doubts. But all of the actual information is mixed with propaganda and hype from all sides, so it’s hard to tell. But they’re determined and trying hard, I think that’s a fact.

    But yeah, I don’t think Europe is leading in a lot of things. We should make an effort, though. Especially with the things that have become rarer. Like doing things ethically. And fostering democracy and freedom with the things we do and the technology we invent…
