    Good for him. I like Nvidia and use one, but I have the rest of his company to thank for that.

    I think for me it was a combination of:

    < Name of person I don’t know > says < big unhinged sweeping generalization > for < reason that makes no sense to anyone in the field >

    My first instinct is not to click stuff like this altogether. I also think that anyone trying to preach what kids should or shouldn’t do is already in the wrong automatically by assuming they have any say in this without a degree in pedagogy.

      He’s also obviously biased since the more people use LLMs and the like the more money he gets.

      It’s a bit like “lions think gazelles should be kept in their enclosure”.
