| 2021 | The research nonprofit Epoch completed a study analyzing GPU price performance, finding that between 2006 and 2021, GPU price performance (in terms of FLOPS/$) doubled approximately every 2.5 years, which is significantly slower than the predictions of Huang's law. |

| 2020 | Joel Hruska, a journalist at ExtremeTech, criticized Huang's law, calling it an 'illusion' and arguing that it is too early to establish it as a definitive technological principle. |

| 2018 | Nvidia demonstrated that their GPUs were 20 times faster than a comparable CPU node, with GPUs improving performance by 1.7x each year, which exceeded traditional technology scaling expectations. |
| 2018 | At the GPU Technology Conference in San Jose, Jensen Huang observed that Nvidia's GPUs were 25 times faster than five years prior, significantly outpacing the expected performance increase predicted by Moore's law. |
