  If that were the case, they'd have already launched a 'demo' version with very low usage limits. Users can start building/porting their models, and then run them in a few months when the next batch of chips arrives.

    Sometimes R&D just takes time.

      The idea of having it publicly accessible has been public for 3 years. Maybe internally for more than that. Yet, building a basic colab-like interface, using opensource tools, shouldn't take more than a few people a few months. Obviously, they might not want to launch that before their hardware is ready, but their hardware has been in production for over a year now. Clearly something hasn't gone to plan.
