usertests Is Time magazine relevant in 2026? I guess it's more relevant than Newsweek. Reply

kealii123 Does anyone under 60 read this magazine? Why bother covering it? Reply

PEnns Nobody is going to lose sleep over this. And this click-baity story is very misleading. There is a BIG difference between producing GPUs for AI and people who have done real work in the AI field or without whom there will be no AI presence at its current stage of market dominance. It's like saying the gas station attendant who fills up the gas tank should be on the same level as Henry Ford when it comes to cars! Reply

You're literally defending the claim that Ben Affleck is more influential in the AI sector than Jensen Huang? /smh. Eximo said: Eh, more like the CEO of Exxon/Mobil, not a gas station attendant. Less inaccurate, but still far off base. Exxon/Mobil doesn't control the types, power, and number of cars that auto companies can build. Reply
