   So if a group of agents, aware of this (bc now they can just read HN or the article, or get blocked the first few times) decide to collaborate and split the problem into pieces that aren't obvious to the chip, and then the agents just build a basic program that does the hacking, how does the chip handle that? I think you would have to build a network that monitors the internet fo signs (like jarvis did with ultron). What am I missing? Are we going to police the internet?

      I think it is well known by this point that hardware-backed security is good until an unfixable hardware bug is found, this just reads to me as Nvidia saying "please don't regulate open models out of existence, look, I have a solution to appease the regulators, please let me keep selling accelerators"

      If this comes through, there's gonna be a grey market for "unlocked" GPUs, were the watchdog is disabled either from firmware, or physically replaced if it's not embedded into the die.
