So the policies themselves are only small neural networks (3 layers) and its weights are stored in the microprocessor. Simulations are only used to learn the weights.

Guided missile of early 1960. Note how much electronics you need when there is no Microprocessor available

Perhaps the most nuanced take on AI. It should have been the job of research institutes to build sovereign AI. There are 20 IITs, NITs & IIITs and many others. What did they do? They are still teaching Intel 8085 microprocessor, when the world has moved to GPUs. IT industry did the best they could. They are not inventing AI, but they are "implementing" AI the best they could. I also do the same. Build sovereign AI apps, relevant to my line of work. In short, see how the business can be enhanced with AI. Then, be a bridge between Business & AI.

🚀 Thread: 10 Mind-Blowing Facts About Jensen Huang Most People Don’t Know 1/ Born in Taiwan in 1963, he moved to Thailand as a kid, then at age 9 was sent to the U.S. His relatives mistakenly enrolled him in a reform school in rural Kentucky (thinking it was a fancy prep school). He cleaned toilets every day and faced bullying as the only Asian kid there. Built unbreakable resilience early. 🇹🇼🏫 2/ Table tennis phenom as a teenager! Placed 3rd in junior doubles at the U.S. Open Table Tennis Championships at age 15. Appeared in Sports Illustrated at 14. Seriously considered going pro and scrubbed floors at a sports store to fund tournaments. 🏓🥇 3/ Started working graveyard shifts at Denny’s at age 15 as a dishwasher, busboy, and waiter to build confidence and support himself. Worked there for years. Decades later, he co-founded NVIDIA in a Denny’s booth. Full circle! 🍔 4/ Met his future wife Lori (then Mills) at Oregon State University—she was his engineering lab partner. They bonded over homework and have been together ever since. True college sweethearts. ❤️ 5/ Graduated high school early at 16. Earned a BS in Electrical Engineering from Oregon State and an MS from Stanford (while working). Brains plus real-world grit from day one. 🎓 6/ Before founding NVIDIA, he worked at AMD on microprocessor design and at LSI Logic on cutting-edge design automation tools. Not just a visionary—a battle-tested chip engineer. 💼 7/ In 1993, at age 30, he co-founded NVIDIA with Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem inside a Denny’s restaurant in San Jose. The graphics (and later AI) revolution literally started over breakfast. 🥞🚀 8/ Ultimate believer: Got a tattoo of the NVIDIA logo on his shoulder when the stock first hit $100 per share. Still proudly wears the ink today. 🖌️ 9/ In that tough Kentucky boarding school, he taught his illiterate, heavily tattooed roommate how to read—in exchange for bench-press lessons. Classic win-win hustle. 💪📖 10/ Doesn’t wear a watch because “now is the most important time.” His signature black leather jacket is his trademark look (wife-approved). Bonus: He’s first cousins once removed with AMD CEO Lisa Su! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 From cleaning toilets in rural Kentucky to building the company powering the AI revolution—Jensen Huang’s journey is the ultimate proof that resilience, vision, and relentless execution can change the world. #JensenHuang #NVIDIA #MindBlown #TechLeadership #AI
