@GaryMarcusboom, there it is. or perhaps i should say, “bust, there it is” all this insanity about demand and there are literally warehouses of idle GPUs.1h

@DanielleFongif you calculate how much money this is burning it's about one nuclear power plant or geothermal plants worth of capacity (at whatever 100 MW or GW chunks you're looking at) per year. of course, you wouldn't think they are holding GPUs for a year!! HOPEFULLY NOT! but that's the scaling20m
