Just been on @trtworld this morning to provide commentary and analysis live on air on Nvidiaโs new RTX Spark chip.
Video clip to come shortly! ๐น
Key points of my analysis:
๐ The RTX Spark is basically the Windows equivalent of the Apple Silicon chip (most powerful chip on the consumer market), combining CPU and GPU capabilities
๐ Nvidia have made this move as a bet against Apple deciding to move AI processing locally to the PC. They see AI agents as being able to replace your mouse & keyboard one day
๐Also a lot of people donโt want to use Clawdbot / Moltbot AI assistants right now as they worry about AI and cybercriminals gaining access to their private data if it is processed in the cloud. If itโs done locally on their PC, they feel safer.
๐ However, while the new laptops are incredibly thin and Nvidia is promising 128GB of โunified memoryโ, the tech community (so software developers, people who are very keen on computing and buying chips for high-end rigs) warn that Nvidia is avoiding discussing the exact performance (i.e. RAM)
๐ In actual fact, while this might make for a faster consumer PC / laptop, it is more likely to be โslow RAMโ that will only be able to run AI agents at a slower speed and likely wonโt be able to do half as much data-processing as would be needed
๐ Nvidia is also promising battery life on the new laptops that will last the whole day, but the tech community say they are used to Nvidia making promises that they donโt deliver on and that if the laptop has to be processing AI agent data & running games, it is unlikely to last that long
๐ There is also a concern that right now Nvidia RTX cards heat up and run much hotter than Apple Silicon chips or AMD architecture cards by other brands / in smartphones. One influencer I was watching reported that even the demo product was already very hot.
