> As part of this agreement, Jonathan Ross, Groq’s Founder, Sunny Madra, Groq’s President, and other members of the Groq team will join Nvidia to help advance and scale the licensed technology.

A really strange agreement where top executives of a company "join" another company for the benefit of the other company.

If it quacks like a duck...

In the current political climate you only need to slightly pretend to care about the appearance of being a monopoly, just enough to give plausible deniability in a sound bite. Anything else isn't worth it.

This is exactly what Google did with Windsurf and similar to what Meta did with Scale AI. Seems like a rising trend,

Remember ex3dfx.com setup by former employees?

This is exactly what nvidia tried to do with 3dfx 25 years ago. They have experience of screwing people over!
