is that necessarily a dealbreaker? GPUs are way overpriced right now because these AI companies control huge chunks of the supply. when openai goes kaput microsoft is gonna have control of both chatgpt and copilot and with it, a huge chunk of the used gpu market. if i'm not missing something huge, that could put them in a great position to absorb the demand from the ai bubble's burst and unload the extra cards at whatever pace they want. plus i have no idea what the rest of the GPU compute market looks like. i assume if there's a lot of demand then AWS wouldn't be able to absorb much of it, and google cloud not as much as microsoft. obviously i've gotten way out of my depth here so i guess this is more of a question than a statement
