Modern Computer Architecture & Organization • Jim Ledin & Maciej «MJ» Jedrzejewski • GOTO 2026

Jim Ledin, author of *Modern Computer Architecture and Organization*, discusses the integration of GPUs and LLMs into his book, emphasizing architectural principles over fleeting trends. He highlights memory bandwidth as the primary bottleneck in AI, explaining the impact of High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) demand on consumer RAM. Ledin also identifies understanding pipelining and cache hierarchy as the most crucial skill for software developers to optimize code performance.

Jensen Huang: The Mindset That Built NVIDIA

Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, shares critical lessons from NVIDIA's journey, emphasizing how early failures and a commitment to learning new technologies, like purchasing textbooks from Fry's to pivot the company, laid the groundwork for their success. He discusses NVIDIA's strategic vision, driven by accelerating algorithm domains and seeing AlexNet as a universal function approximator, which led to a reinvention of the computing stack. Huang also explores the future of AI with agents, the importance of fine-grained control, and the "Linux moment" of open-source AI, while also forecasting the rise of physical AI and job creation. He concludes with profound advice on resilience, systems thinking, and the "how hard can it be?" mindset for aspiring entrepreneurs in this unprecedented era of technological reset.
