Following the Apple M4, Nvidia is putting out their own variation of an "unified memory" platform designed for running large AI models locally (up to 200 billion parameters from their advertisement), the GB10. Like the M4, the system seems to trade-off bus speed for more "unified RAM" (rumors are LPDDR5X). Prices start at $3,000 to keep it competitive with the M4.

With the 5090 only supporting up to 32 GB VRAM, there appears to now be sufficient demand for "consumer AI" platforms for Nvidia and Apple to both invest. Still questionable on who would drop $3,000 on a machine like this when the speed is likely going to be super slow for anything resembling 200 billion parameters. But we'll see what Nvidia can do.

so it looks like AI industry is already disrupting white collar jobs. I saw Microsoft looking to downsize its engineers. Salesforce might be doing the same.

And I know the animation industry is downsizing also. These video generation tools are going to put some big studios in a bind.

I disagree the studios will make bigger and better stuff within the same budget and time.

A team of people using AI is still going to put out a much much better product than a single person using AI.

The companies can decide whether to downsize to improve their profit margins or keep/expand to increase potential revenue.
