Whenever computer chips go into space, they have to be hardened against radiation, because there is no atmosphere to protect them. Otherwise you get random bit flips.

This process takes a while, which is partly why all the computers in space seem out of date. Because they are.

No one is going to want to use chips that are a many years out of date or subject to random bit flips.

(Although now it got me thinking, do random bit flips matter when training a trillion parameter model?)

not a problem for "AI". it's just a bit more spice (temperature) which Grok possibly need! jk!
