I hope this won't change NVIDIA's refusal to block inference for unsigned and registered open-models in the firmware of modern GPUs. Anthropic and others are pushing hard on this. First the hardware export ban, eventually the software one via hardware-enforced execution controls like IETF hinted at

For real? Anthropic sounds more evil that my wildest imagination. If true, I hope this kind of evil company gets destroyed sooner than later.

It's obviously the biggest concern.

Either through technical means, or simpler: by law for American providers. It's hard to believe the administration was not aware of Jensen's affiliations all this time. And time is pressing for Anthropic and OpenAI.

Only conjectures for now, time will tell

Yeah, this is the biggest concern that I have regarding this whole story.

Is there a source for this? I googled it and this was claimed to be satire

Of course it's about building an oligopoly of frontier companies controlled by the deep state.

It's sad that people talk here about some personal affairs when it's clearly about governmental control, but it's not the first time a scandal is used as a weapon.

Definitely, expect future GPUs to run only signed LLM models with mandatory online attestation and reporting.

Of course it will. That's the entire point of this. It has nothing to do with an affair.
