  I feel like they want to make it so physical PC’s are dead and you just buy a screen that streams it from some Nvidia server. That way you can’t pirate, or download a song. And since they own it all it’s a monthly subscription they can increase slowly over time.

    Maybe but it’s worth pointing out that the stuff Nvidia is producing is only good for making and running AI models, not for serving audio and video. So many resources and so much money have pissed up the wall in pursuit of a tech bro AI bubble, it’s infuriating to think of what could’ve been accomplished. Instead all we’ll be left with is a bunch of highly specialized compute that will soon be available for pennies on the dollar and some half finished giant warehouses
