A niche acquisition by Nvidia has raised concerns among artificial-intelligence and supercomputer specialists who see the move as a test of the biggest AI chip company’s commitment to maintaining a fair playing field for chip rivals and AI data center builders.Nvidia last December announced it would acquire SchedMD, giving it control of open-source software called Slurm, which schedules computing tasks and is critical for training large language models that power chatbots such as Anthropic’s Claude. Slurm also runs on government supercomputers which help forecast the weather and develop nuclear weapons. There also is a hope among some users that Nvidia, the world’s most valuable publicly traded company, will reinvigorate development, pouring some of its staggering resources into long-awaited updates of a system built years ago for government supercomputers and now spreading from national labs into frontier AI companies. Do you think that it is the corporates that controls USA economy through the governent ?
