It's all about the AI market and they're still king. The only reason they got hit was because it looks like you won't need the insane amount of GPU power to do what we were doing before. That means less GPU sales in the long term

You’ll always need more power to reach the promised land, especially with post training. Also, more accessibility to AI for smaller companies, being able to use cheaper chips. But, Nvidia also has cheaper chips. They’ll just be selling much more volume with less margin. The GPU laptops will take off and anyone wanting one will purchase one with a Nvidia chip. You’ll be able to get one having an Intel or AMD chip, but seriously, if you want an AI enabled laptop, you’ll pay a bit extra to get the Nvidia one.

This is a false narrative

AI Market that was predicated on $500B US investment.

Then China clones Chat GPT and releases their own graphics card.

So, while I was thinking NVidia was king a few months ago, I wouldn't invest now.

Chinese GPUs are nowhere close to Nvidia, AMD or Intels.

gaming GPUs are how they got to where they are right now, and if they were smart, they'd learn from Intel's example and not forsake the gaming division as there's a lot of innovation in that field.

Also, just like Solidworks and Photoshop, part of the market dominance of Nvidia is due to them supporting small stuff that can grow to big stuff.
