alt Hacker NewsI suppose NVidia could invest in making their GPUs more reliable? But then that'll make everything else even more expensive lol. If only one of the companies on the chain can take one for the team.

Why? Nvidia is already charging as much as they possibly can. Unlike most other components its almost unrelated to manufacturing costs

And NVIDIA supposedly has the exact knowhow for reliablity, as their Jetson 'industrial' parts are qualified for 10-15 years at maximal temp. Of course Jetson is on another point of the flops and watts curve.
Just wondering, if reliability increases if you slow down your use of GPUs a bit. Like pausing more often and stopping chasing every bubble and nvlink-all-reduce optimization.
