Things like petals (https://github.com/bigscience-workshop/petals https://github.com/bigscience-workshop/petals) exist, distributed computing over willing participants. Right now corporate cash is being rammed into the space so why not snap it up while you can, but the moment it dries up projects like petals will see more of the love they deserve. I envision a future where crypto-style booms happen over tokens useful for purchasing priority computational time, which is earned by providing said computational time. This way researchers can daisy-chain their independent smaller rigs together into something with gargantuan capabilities.
