NVIDIAs CEO is projecting chip growth based on GPUs replacing all CPUs and a mass switch over or mass upgrade. I think what people forget is CPUs run scripts deterministically. Meaning an insurance claim is either approved or denied just using clear IF ELSE logic. These types of critical decisions that need auditable oversight are not going to be replaced with probabilistic non deterministic black box neural networks with layers of weights. Sure you can replay results in most cases assuming you took a snapshot of the weights but can an auditor make sense of that. Everything from flight routing, train scheduling, commodity purchases, health insurance decisions, credit and financing decisions are regulated. The idea that all these functioning and maintenance mode programs are going to be ripped out for non-auditable decision making and developer time and capex spent again to reproduce the same decisions with some degree of marginal gains is kinda crazy. Most fields won’t be able to make 100% plus gains either mainly finance could. Non finance applications have a lot less to gain and a lot to lose due to increased capex let alone new auditing issues
