    They just design them.

    It’s not trivial though. They also managed to lock dev with CUDA.

    That being said I don’t think they were “just” lucky, I think they built their luck through practices the DoJ is currently investigating for potential abuse of monopoly.

      Yeah CUDA, made a lot of this possible.

      Once crypto mining was too hard nvidia needed a market beyond image modeling and college machine learning experiments.
