@kkarhan except the difference is that Leather Jacket Daddy and numerous executives have personal, direct awareness of actual sanction-busting going on at an industrial level.

That would be the same Leather Jacket Daddy who is kissing ass and paying bribes to try and make it retroactively legal.

And now trying to sell into a dictatorship that has no further use for him or his company, and has banned *use* of their parts.

@kkarhan and to be clear, no, I do not mean the sale of the parts.

I do not mean the Mellanox investigation.

I do not mean except the China-only parts.

I mean that Winnie the Pooh has issued a decree through CAC which requires all companies to cancel billions of dollars in orders, bans any and all further development with or for any and all NV parts, and will require special permission to continue using existing parts.

@rootwyrm Obviously "#AI" is inherently unethical as research regardless where, even if it's not into #StochasticParrot|s, #BullshitGenerator|s and #SurfeillanceState #Govware due to being #WastefulComputing!

WTF Is Going On?
