  1. There is a peer reviewed paper of it search for Woodwards Mach effect paper. The problem that is why it is not accepted by mainstream science is because it rejects the equivalence principle. But the equivalence principle is axiomatic meaning we just accept it to be true because we found no evidence that it is not true. This is why the young guy was talking about the pink elephant and how you cannot prove that the pink elephant does not exist. You cannot prove that the equivalence principle is true just that so far no one has proven it wrong. Their theory says the equivalence principle is wrong. If this was mathematics then mathematicians will just declare a different axiom and place the theory to a different branch of mathematics. But science needs one set of truth and their theory is obviously in conflict with the accepted model of the universe.

  2. CUDA is the least of their problems. Their biggest problem is that everyone is moving to ASIC for AI. ASIC are inherently more energy efficient than GPU's. And power cost has become an enormous factor in developing frontier AI.

  3. Yeah sure you regularly send stuff to space and. Politics makes you choose to not use the cheapest rocket ride to space. Tell me your company so I can short it.

  4. They have a theory it is just not accepted by mainstream science because it involves gravitational enertia and momentum enertia being two different things. So you are giving up the equivalence principle of general relativity. But just like Relativity is a slight alteration of Newtonian physics their theory is also a slight alteration of general relativity. Meaning most of the time the two enertia is the same but there are situation where they are different and that is why you gain momentum on an oscillating mass but the effect is very tiny so it is very hard to measure by experiment.

  5. They are not borrowing energy they are borrowing momentum. Basically their device produce a gravitational wave with negative momentum so that their device gain positive momentum but their device consume energy.

  6. The technology came from the semiconductor industry. So don't worry that the tech will get locked up it is too late for that. The technology is intensively used to manufacture microchips.

  7. Energy has mass so charging the crystal changes it's mass. Also the effect they expect is very tiny that it is very difficult to measure. So it is not like rowing a boat more like manually blowing away a fully loaded tanker ship with the air from your lungs.

  8. There is protecting local company and there is putting your CEO to jail with misdemeanor charges.

  9. Why would his tails leave every time he goes to a hotel? Why was the box not manually inspected? How did the box get transported inside the airport?

  10. The controversy is because their theory rejects the equivalence principle. We have not proven that the equivalence principle is true just that so far no one has proven that the equivalence principle is wrong. And this is the problem they need to prove that the equivalence principle is wrong before their theory can be accepted by mainstream science. But it does not mean that the theory is wrong just that there is no proof that it is correct. Their experiment of course is the pathway for them to prove that they are correct they just need to convince everyone that they did the experiment correctly.

  11. Flugschüler Fluglehrer I barely understand it but there needs to be difference between gravitational inertia and momentum inertia for their device to work. If you assume that their description of how their device actually works is correct. I think there can be another way to explain the device if it works but it requires violation of some other important principles.

  12. KL Tah The answer to that is money. If you are rich enough there are organizations in Japan that will ensure that things that need to be overlooked will be overlooked.

  14. @foxale08  AI is closer to cryptomining than graphics processing. With AI you have one function that is used a lot which is matrix multiply. Cryptomining also has one function that is used a lot. The difference is that AI needs a tiny bit of general processing while Cryptomining can be all fixed function. The main difference between GPU and AI is memory access. Memory access for AI is a lot more structured so you don't need expensive predictived Cache Prefetcher that is used to manage GPU caches. In fact AI needs only a direct SRAM buffer instead of GPU's complicated multi level cache hierarchy and all the logic needed to manage this caches.

  15. Their set up is restricted to one axis of freedom and it is align precisely to isolate it from the earths gravity. They want to make sure that the effect they are measuring is not a localize phenomenon.
