It's true the title is clickbait and VMs and serverless are completely different beasts. However, there is something right in this title: when you take into account how serverless was originally marketed ("you save costs as you run things only when you need so you save on these expensive ec2s running 24/7") and the reality (performance issues, cold boot, arbitrary timeout limit, high cost for longer-running processes) it may turn out that cheap VMs might work much better in scenarios where serverless was initially considered.
