There is a well known black industry in DoD, probably 20-50 years ahead of anything we have in academia and commercial sectors in all industrial sectors from semiconductors to materials science research. Parts of the Blackbird are still classified, to this day and so are the materials that make the aircraft up.

Given this example, I can assure you, it is fully funded by the Federal Reserve, with unlimited money printing and no you will never ever see any of that research and yes your children's children will still be paying for it long after you are dead.

Given these facts, the DoD seems to be a oxymoron in context of this list.

I would highly advise against it and will protest vigorously.

Given that this is taxpayer money, the results should be made available
to the public, including full documentation of how to program any
resulting chips. And any patents/copyright should be owned by the public.

I highly doubt that it will happen this way.
It's going to be patented to death.
We're talking about NVidia...

well, this can be another "selling point" for Tim's proposal :
NVidia's solutions will be closed and proprietary.
Tim's work will be much more effective in general because
even if the gains will be moderate (compared to NVidia)
they will benefit much more people and domains.
