For a time, so was bitcoin mining. ML hardware sales are being driven by a 'Renaissance' of rapid model development and commercial offerings, primarily by the FAANG, but several others too. This is neat, but beyond the initial waves, OpenGPT isn't exactly the digital messiah many suggested it was, and running these models is expensive (both in HW and power for it). Time will tell, but I am skeptical this will be more than a craze for most applications (except digital art, which is awesome and has already been proven effective; just not maybe as marketable to the masses).
