Steeve Morin: Why Google Will Win the AI Arms Race & OpenAI Will Not | E1262 · 20VC with Harry Stebbings
- ▶ 6:25 Harry Stebbings Can I ask, before, you know, we were chatting about NVIDIA and AMD when DeepSeq obviously happened and the stock crash that happened. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 6:50 Steeve Morin Very hard to say whether it will be worth, you know, everybody's money to do it on H 100. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 7:06 Steeve Morin Because, um, it was built on the A 100, uh, I would say financial model, which was 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 8:38 Steeve Morin To be honest, this is, this is where we, I think this is where Nvidia can be, can be attacked. 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 13:17 Steeve Morin The reason probably Nvidia won, at least in the training space, is because of Mellanox, right?
- ▶ 14:08 Harry Stebbings Before, before we move to inference, I, I do just want us to stay on chips and just say, okay, so we have TPUs, we have NVIDIA, we have, um, AMD. 4 times in the scene
- ▶ 19:45 Harry Stebbings You know, we've seen with training, that's really where NVIDIA have dominated so heavily.
- ▶ 23:08 Steeve Morin Now we have a bit of a, um, we are being spared a bit because Blackwell is late and orders are getting canceled.
- ▶ 23:16 Steeve Morin And, uh, so H series, I would say are still, you know, in the, uh, in the, uh, active, but yes, absolutely.
- ▶ 25:01 Harry Stebbings Jensen has made it very clear that inference opens up more revenue opportunity for Nvidia. 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 25:47 Steeve Morin So I think Nvidia is used to stay, uh, at least if not for the H-one hundred, you know, bubble bust.
- ▶ 32:00 Harry Stebbings So when I had Jonathan on, he was like, actually Nvidia have such a stronghold because they're one of the only buyers of HBM and that gives them this unique position. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 35:20 Harry Stebbings Do you think NVIDIA owns both of those markets in five years time? 8 times in the scene
- ▶ 36:34 Steeve Morin They have a product called NIMH that does, you know, sort of does that.
- ▶ 38:05 Harry Stebbings and I said, Hey, you know, I bought Nvidia 5 times in the scene
- ▶ 43:01 Steeve Morin AMD, Nvidia, whatever.
- ▶ 44:10 Steeve Morin But AMD can do training, but it's also, but in terms of maturity, the, by far the most mature software and compute is TPUs, and then it's Nvidia.
- ▶ 45:16 Steeve Morin Eight H-One hundred.
- ▶ 45:47 Steeve Morin With one machine of eight, eight, eight, 100, you kind of run two seven TBS model.
- ▶ 47:07 Steeve Morin It's like you get, and bind you, these chips are 30% cheaper than Nvidia's. 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 49:57 Steeve Morin Probably it's why also Nvidia is the better buy right now.
- ▶ 1:09:32 Steeve Morin Uh, there are like A-one-hundred level, but they have probably, I would say, one of their unfair advantage is that there are, you know, exercise.
- ▶ 1:15:35 Steeve Morin Black whale is probably something that keeps them awake, that keeps him awake at night. 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 1:16:30 Steeve Morin The, the supply of H 100 was actually a smooth out over the year so that they decided so that they didn't have like a big, you know, spike in deliveries and then a quarter less, right? 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 1:16:47 Steeve Morin Uh, some of them even haven't received their order from last year and they already see like the new chip, the B 200 and then the one after, you know, and they're super pissed.
- ▶ 1:17:00 Steeve Morin The question is, you know, when and, uh, uh, how, like, if there's like the H 100 bubble, of course it will impact NVIDIA.
Jonathan Ross, Founder & CEO @ Groq: NVIDIA vs Groq - The Future of Training vs Inference | E1260 · 20VC with Harry Stebbings
- ▶ 0:10 Jonathan Ross You can almost say we're one of the best things that's ever happened to NVIDIA because they can make every single GPU that they were going to make, and they can sell it for training, high margin, gets amortized across deployment. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 10:01 Jonathan Ross I, I don't agree that Nvidia stock should have gone down for that. 2 times in the scene
- ▶ 16:58 Jonathan Ross Um, you don't normally think of tech companies as having a cornered resource, but Nvidia has a cornered resource. 2 times in the scene

Jonathan Ross: DeepSeek Special - How Should OpenAI and the US Government Respond | E1253 · 20VC with Harry Stebbings
- ▶ 37:52 Jonathan Ross Um, 2000 GPUs and the nerfed, you know, a 800 version with slower memory or whatever it is.
- ▶ 38:56 Harry Stebbings I just bought a shitload of NVIDIA, because they dropped 16% on the thesis that the increasing efficiency means that obviously we wouldn't need as much NVIDIA chips. 6 times in the scene
- ▶ 41:56 Jonathan Ross I don't know that Nvidia will ever see it this way, but I do think that those of us focusing on inference and building stuff specifically for that are probably the best thing that's ever happened for Nvidia stock because we'll take on the… 3 times in the scene
- ▶ 42:55 Harry Stebbings Uh, and I'm thrilled to hear you share my optimism around NVIDIA.
George Sivulka, Co-Founder & CEO @Hebbia: The Future of Foundation Models | E1250 · 20VC with Harry Stebbings
