Dear all, I'm sincerely sorry for the poor article I submitted. The article was written by a news agency in China and they probably did a machine translation into English hence the poor article. Here is the original Chinese version of the article:

Interesting article. The author might want to consider monetizing it with a few ads.

It is an interesting article.

The "50 sheets" is a bad translation. They mean 50 GPUs.

The person who submitted, coolwulf, is I think the subject of the article. Maybe coolwulf can comment on if this research is now a full time job? Where did the initial funding for 50 GPUs come from?

What's a "sheet" of 1080Ti?

I suspect "card" has been poorly translated (eg, as a material instead of as an item)
