Nobody's running SDXL on an 80W GPU when they're talking about generating images, and you also have to take into account training and developing SDXL or the relevant model. AI companies are spending a lot of resources on training,

Yep those are exactly the same considerations. LLM providers will have inconsistent latency and throughput due to batching across many users, while training with cloud GPU servers can have inconsistent bandwidth and delay for uploading mass
