George Hotz moves at about 1000 mph and in multiple directions simultaneously, which makes for an enjoyable podcast. Swyx’s show summary:

How tiny is taking on Nvidia, Google, and PyTorch, building in public with AMD, hot takes on ggml, Mojo, Elon, e/acc, and GPT-4, and why AI Girlfriend is next.

A few additional links:

  • the tiny corp where Hotz is working on:
    • tinygrad, the fastest growing neural network framework (over 9000 GitHub stars)
    • The tinybox, a 1600W (one 120V outlet), 738 FP16 TFLOPS personal AI server.
