I’m free to choose any laptop I want for work. This means, that for me, the GPU and other processors are free. It turns out that I still avoid Nvidia like the plague. I don’t care if it is free, if the drivers are horrible.
Jensen Huang says even free AI chips from his competitors can't beat Nvidia's GPUs

And AMD or Intel are better? Everyone complains about the drivers.
snaggen@programming.dev 8 months ago
For Linux it is a huge difference. AMD and Intel have great open source drivers, while Nvidia have binary drivers with a lot of issues.

You should try working with their CUDA tool chains. Good. Lord.

I still won’t consider an AMD GPU because all 3 I’ve had throughout my life have had horrible driver experiences. Even the FirePro I had at work at one point required a special driver build that AMD eventually gave me to work even half decent. Never had any major issues with NVidia drivers.

I’ve had the opposite experience here on GNU/Linux. The AMD drivers are phenomenal.

Free?
I’ll take free GPUs, where can I get some?

Intel and AMD chasing Nvidia AI GPUs.
Jensen Huang begins his response by unpacking his tiny violin. “We have more competition than anyone on the planet,” claimed the CEO. He told Shoven that even Nvidia’s customers are its competitors, in some cases. Also, Huang pointed out that Nvidia actively helps customers who are designing alternative AI processors and goes as far as revealing to them what upcoming Nvidia chips are on the roadmap.

If he says so it must be true.

Successful or monopolistic?
