It's a workstation. The following people might make use of all that hardware: * Game development engineer who needs to test games at all graphics settings; * Digital artist who needs to rapidly iterate by creating draft renderings quickly before sending the model/scene to a render farm; * Roboticist developing robotics algorithms that require lots of local data collected in the field that would be infeasible to upload to AWS; * Physicist developing computational models which should be tested on smaller instance locally before sending off to a supercomputer. Besides, if you're planning to use a machine for compute for more than several months, it becomes cost-efficient vs renting an AWS instance.
