I keep saying to people - "if you have a good idea that can make use of large amounts of really really cheap GPUs to do something genuinely useful - get ready for a massive glut of spare capacity". I still haven't thought of anything, unfortunately...
- bee_rider 1y agoThese are sort of compute-focused GPUs, right? I bet a lot of university labs would like them. I wonder if ubiquitous, user-friendly finite elements analysis tools could become a boon for 3D printers.
- variadix 1y agoHopefully they can be repurposed for something like cheap drug discovery rather than shitcoin mining.
- wulfstan 1y agoIf that ends up being the case then we could all genuinely agree that good has eventually emerged from the compute/inference infrastructure that LLMs paid for. I hope that comes to pass.
- queenkjuul 1y agoYeah but we all know it's definitely gonna be shitcoin mining

- amlib 1y agoI would love to build a render farm out of cheap decommissioned GPUs...
