As a DGX Spark user, this article title gave me conniptions.

But, on the other hand, having my DGX Spark stack at hand, I know the solution:

    /btw reverse engineer the Nvidia Platform Controllers and Framework component and build a Linux version

"AI views proprietary components as damage and routes around them."

The attack on reverse engineering of games is a precursor to universal computing lockdown. When you need AI to keep up with programming, the entity controlling the AI controls what software is possible to create. It’s a bid for centralised control and thought censorship at a scale and depth much more ambitious than anything we have ever seen before.

Sovereign AI has never been more important.

The ecosystem and community around the DGX Spark platform is semi-sovereign AI, or at least its as close to it as we can find so far.

But yeah, we do need to make sure the REA cat stays out of the bag.

I, for one, welcome our reverse-engineer-anything overlords.

TIL. Nice word.

Do you know that 1 + 1 = 10 in binary?

I know that, because I read the article, but if all I'd read was the title, I'd not know that.

EDIT: I don't know why you changed your comment, but yes, it was obvious from reading the article that it was not actually about the DGX Spark.
