I'm skeptical that Miso Robotics can actually deliver a useful product that outperforms or matches human labor at the same price point. They don't show clear videos of what exactly the robot is capable of, and keep buying Instagram ads to invest in their company.

> The #1 problem with PyTorch is that it’s great if you want to use one videocard for training

Incorrect information so confidently stated here. Tons of research papers that use more than one GPU for training, not sure what you're referring to? Standard DDP works fine, for starters.

It'd be great if you could add benchmark numbers for this comparing CPU/GPU on inference / sec and inference / watt.

Beyond Meat is not meat though. It's not even close in taste.

Is the demo down for anyone else? It's stuck loading. Chrome on MacOS

Geekbench scores came out, The Epyc 7443p scored 27461, M1 Ultra scored 24055 on multi-core. Geekbench uses ARM-native for Mac M1 iirc.

My workstation build with Epyc is ~$5,000 and has more cores (24 core), more memory (256 GB), faster GPU (3090), a 2TB pcie 4 SSD and I suspect will perform better on standard benchmarks. Definitely not as compact as the Studio though but lot more extendable.

Apple isn't an OEM? They don't sell products that are marketed by another company.

Neural Engine cores are not accessible for third party developers, so it'll be severely constrained for practical purposes. Currently the M1 Max is no match for even last generation mid-tier Nvidia GPU.

On the positive side, a solution for global warming.

NYTimes stock has gone up 200% over the last 5 years. I think they're doing fine.

This extension has been around for 2 years, and has worked reliably. Just need to update it once in awhile.

> (My take on VR is far more pessimistic. VR just… isn't going to happen, in any "changing the world" form, in our lifetimes. This is a subject for a different blog post, but I think AR and projection will do much more for us, far sooner.)

Can Carmack toss in a free Quest 2? It looks like the last time he tried VR was back in 2015. The state of the art is a lot better now.
