How does the advertisement process work exactly? $FAMOUSPERSON joins platform and makes their first post. Were they a nobody, it would be screaming into the void. Does the celebrity contact news outlets, “Hey guys, I joined Twitter, I will make my first post soon.” Equally amusing because Huang could call any media organization on the planet and have a full interview that day.

This feels like Nvidia's strategy doesn't really care about the few companies they invested to pushing frontier AI, but about scaling up the amount of GPUs/datacenters needed; open models forcing more GPU purchases would drive that faster than 2 frontier labs ever could. It's likely also attractive to anyone running a GPU rental business like AWS, Azure etc. who can offer more models.
