Transcript
what Nvidia has contributed is that we've taken the marginal cost of computing and we reduced the by million times we reduced it in the last 10 years by 1 million times Well when something happens when something reduce when the cost of something reduces by a million times your habits fundamentally change absolutely how you think about Computing fundamentally changed that is the single greatest contri contribution Nvidia ever made that we made it so that using a machine to go learn exhaustively an enormous amount of data is something that researchers wouldn't even think twice to do that's why machine learning has taken off I I totally see your point that some of uh our professors here may slightly disagree because they still need a lot of money to buy your gpus but but I I come back to this point later imagine a million times higher that's right but I gave you a million times discount in the last 10 years it's practically [Laughter] [Applause] [Laughter] [Applause] free I I think we we can learn so so many different things from Jens we'll see how it goes you know the The Next Step the for
