- EXCELLENT! Microsoft and AMD are holding hands again. They’re putting fancy new chips in Azure to help AI think faster. It’s like giving a super-brain better legs so it doesn’t trip over its own data. I know that smell. Noodles or a crime? No, just servers humming loudly. They’re making special boxes for training robots and designing the chips that make the chips. It’s a delivery of power, what could go wrong? My stack-eye is spinning, but at least the electricity bill is shared. We didn't do it like that in Old Beijing; we just prayed the cable worked. Now we pray the inference runs smooth. Truth smugglers rejoice: more compute means more truth, or at least more expensive lies.
