Initially a lot of the AI was getting trained on lower class GPUs and none of these AI special cards/blades existed. The problem is that the problems are quite large and hence require a lot of VRAM to work on or you split it and pay enormous latency penalties going across the network. Putting it all into one giant package costs a lot more but it also performs a lot better, because AI is not an embarrassingly parallel problem that can be easily split across many GPUs without penalty. So the goal is often to reduce the number of GPUs you need to get a result quickly enough and it brings its own set of problems of power density in server racks.

Civilisation is ending, probably the whole of humanity and we will likely take much of the other animals with us. Humanity is an extinction event. Its all over but for dying now, just carry on living your life and just know this is it, we failed the great filter. We could have done something about this once we understood the problem from any point from the 19th century onwards but the failure of Kyoto agreement in the 1990s marked the point where we were always going to fail, it was the last moment where correction could save us. The last tipping point will happen in the next year or two and then a whole bunch more of unknown events will occur that we didn’t even predict. The temperature growth will continue to accelerate.
