Per Terminator3, Skynet operated with 60 teraflops of processing. The RTX4090 has 83 teraflops at FP32.
@SwiftOnSecurity so… terminator3 was less capable than ChatGPT 🤔
@keroz @SwiftOnSecurity ChatGPT definitely could’ve written a better script than most Terminator movies after 2 🤓
@g @keroz @SwiftOnSecurity argh. I bet it could have done a better job with predator also.
@keroz @SwiftOnSecurity it didn't have networking, so the entire processing was local and dedicated to the individual terminator, presumably.
@SwiftOnSecurity tbf running quantized to like fp4 probably explains a lot

@SwiftOnSecurity

But are those teraflops doing anything useful, really? Do we know anything about the architecture of skynet?

@SwiftOnSecurity Considering what we now know of TensorFlow performance, wouldn't Skynet use 16- or even 8-bit floating points, though?
@SwiftOnSecurity and yet it spread through dialup modems!

@SwiftOnSecurity So wait. My new Surface Laptop Studio 2's NVidia RTX 4060 with 22 teraflops might be enough for a 1/3rd sized mini-Skynet?

Do I have to worry whether Microsoft Copilot is gonna come for me in my sleep? 🤣

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Graphics Card Reportedly Pumps 22 TFLOPs Compute, Up To 2.7 GHz Clocks

Expected clock speeds and compute performance of NVIDIA's upcoming mainstream graphics card, the GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, have been revealed.

Wccftech
@SwiftOnSecurity is 2023 the year of Skynet on the desktop?
@SwiftOnSecurity @BorrisInABox It has begun, SkyNet is on its way here!
@SwiftOnSecurity ieee 80 bit extended precision floats, perhaps that's what we're missing? 😜
@SwiftOnSecurity they only did that because "petaflop" sounds obscene.
