Every GPU That Mattered
Why didn't datacenter GPUs make the list. AI trained with them is such a significant part of computing today.

Because consumers don't care about them, probably. They're never going to be remembered fondly like gaming cards.

Website is called "Every GPU that mattered". The GPUs that trained AlexNet, GPT-1 and 2 are probably the most consequential GPUs in compute history.

Sure, I just explained why they probably aren't there. Every GPU that gamers cared about isn't as catchy, I suppose.

The reason datacenter cards even exist are gaming GPUs. gaming basically funded GPU development up to the point of AI explosion.
So no, the most important AI card isn't AI card, it's gaming GPUs that funded that mess

If there are 49 cards we have enough to cover both the gaming era of GPUs and the AI era of GPUs.
