    I had to close the GN vid after he said Russia is allegedly using AI to surveil their citizens.

    Like yeah Steve. Conveniently never mention the genocide being committed using AI in the most dystopian way possible. Or anything regarding Israel ever, such as NVIDIA building a multi billion dollar tech campus in Israel right now.

      Are you genuinely going to nitpick a video focusing on the black market for gpus… about not calling out your specific concern? My dude - I’d advise you to find perspective that isn’t up your own ass.

        Yes. It was a hillarious double standard showcasing how biased the reporter is and unwilling to speak the truth. There is nothing to learn from such bad journalism.

        Avoiding talking the about Israel while bringing up Western preferred lines is the most suspicious thing a “journalist” can do.

          … opposed to the journalist speaking about a topic they set out to cover without derailing things … and still producing in excess of 3 hours of distilled content. You are exactly what is wrong with the current social media. There are thousands of topics speaking directly about the subject you are concerned with. Go partake in those. You aren’t shedding light on something - you are virtue signalling. You aren’t being a good steward - you are being a disruptive cunt.

            GamersNexus chose to derail things. With rumors about Russia instead of mentioning Israel committing a literal genocide with AI. And they purposely avoid talking about Israel in every single of their videos.

            They choose to make their videos political and make political statements. But the hypocrisy on this is too glaring.

              instead of

              Your topic. Your concern. I covered this. You want to drive the topic? Make your own content. I understand there’s even a transformative method of reviewing content and talking about it. By all means go do that. Your fanatical pursuit of this accomplishes what? Go on - let us all know your manifesto. Detail to us how this opinion of yours, on a tiny thread, on an even smaller corner of the Internet, is making a difference at all in the topic you are whinging about.

              You are a poser looking to self congratulate or a low effort troll. You want to make a difference? Go do it. This isn’t it - nor is it a viable path to a solution.

                  You made a post about a subject you were concerned with not brought up in a video you watched - and this part is important - on a thread discussing the video getting improperly removed.

                  Now perhaps you didn’t read the title completely and became confused… but assuming you didn’t: please tell me how your urgent missive is on topic.

                  My original response at least provided you the courtesy of a response. You didn’t care for it - but that is perfectly fine. Your type rarely enjoy those sort of observations.

                  If you are looking to derail things further after losing your original position I’d suggest you stop. This behavior is well documented as a standard method of trolling and isn’t even novel.

                  You are the only one whining about it.

                  And you are whining for the stupidiest reason… That a news story focused on X, didnt deeply cover what you want of subject Y.

                  This is like ordering steak at a restaurant and having fucking toddler meltdown because you didnt get pancakes. in a restaurant that doesnt serve pancakes. at the dinner service.

      I’m as against Israel’s war crimes as the next guy, but I don’t see why some people try to shoehorn it into completely irrelevant topics.

      The video is about GPUs being smuggled into China, as well as the futility of this GPU export ban.

      It is not about middle eastern geopolitics. That’s why middle eastern geopolitics wasn’t mentioned.

            It also mentions America and the example has nothing to do with export bans.

            GamersNexus will mention every country except the one which may not be named.

          Because USA has similar restrictions on Russia for these powerful GPUs. Because Russia is just over the boarder from China. Because its another example. Just because Steve gave us a few examples, of countries using ai tech, dosent mean we need an exhaustive list of every example in the world.

            It sure is convenient Steve only ever brings up Russia and never Israel. That is not weird whatsoever. Ignoring the Holocaust elephant in the room.

              You sound like a jilted LTT fan that holds a grudge over Steve’s coverage of Linus with this kind of ridiculous stretching you’re trying to do.

                LTT has a different weird standard where the only politics they will ever indulge in is making fun of Donald Trump.

                You sound like a jilted GN fan which holds a grudge over Steve getting very mad about minor issues but ignores major ones. Like genocide. And AI being used to commit genocide.
