Linus Torvalds — Talks about AI Hype, GPU Power, and Linux’s Future

Here Linus Torvalds Speaks on a calm and relaxed energy level, on the LLM hype how it affects kernel development and open source. The mothods how recent Linux kernel hardware like GPUs and APUs from different companies like AMD has modified the Linux's kernel role.

My first, favorite and most important sequence, the weights of prime numbers: A117078
We see prime numbers classified by level and by weight on the graph.

A117078: a(n) is the smallest k such that prime(n+1) = prime(n) + (prime(n) mod k), or 0 if no such k exists ➡️ oeis.org/A117078

"It may appear surprising that sensibility should be introduced in connexion with mathematical demonstrations, which, it would seem, can only interest the intellect. But not if we bear in mind the feeling of mathematical beauty, of the harmony of numbers and forms and of geometric elegance. It is a real aesthetic feeling that all true mathematicians recognize, and this is truly sensibility." – Henri Poincaré (1854-1912)
