- m_ke 5y agoYes except for the ones that are lighting saudi money on fire by having softbank pay for it. A lot of ML startups end up buying hardware for training because they can get a GPU for what it would cost them to rent it for 2 months on GCP/AWS.
- wmfiv 5y agoThat sounds right about ML startups. But ML startups or even venture funded companies are a very small percentage of companies - especially when it comes to spending signficant dollars.
- m_ke 5y agoMy original comment was referring to companies who train their own machine learning models. They might not be spending the way large slow corporations and the government do but there's a lot of investment in the space and a ton of room for growth.
