From gaming graphics to AI dominance: Nvidia's Jensen Huang receives America's highest science honor

[Hellbishop]

No, not "science".
What Nvidia, SpaceX etc. are doing is real applied science in its purest form, and all these people absolutely deserve their colossal contribution to be acknowledged and praised. You probably believe Bernie Sanders and AOC should have been awarded ...

These companies had nothing to do with the 2008 crash, by the way.

I wonder, what you're referring to by "this nonsense"? The Navier–Stokes solution? The recently published 300+ solutions of long standing math problems?

Totally agree. When someone like me who is disabled and sixty years old is able to enjoy their products especially when it comes to computer related things and the quality of life it brings I have nothing but praise and thanks. It is easy to complain but maybe people should spend their money more wisely on things that stick around more than blowing it on a six pack of beer and a meal at a fast food joint. I know what it's like to be down and out where there was only a cup of watery coffee for breakfast and a box of cheese from the local church pantry and yet I hung in there where the past thirty plus years have been great thanks to people who push the future with technological advances and keep the economy going thru fat and lean times.

Ge got the Golden Douch award for destroying a VGA brand and turning into weaponized Ai to sell to whom has the money to pay. From gaming video cards to weapons of Ai, sure award him.
