Also, the most important part of AWS was that Amazon quickly moved ALL of it's internal infrastructure onto AWS once it was up and running. They were their own customer so that even IF (and obviously a big if), they were not able to sell their excess capacity, they would still have a customer.

Now, Amazon doesn't have a money making system to just throw into their GPU datacenters, before GenAI their use cases for GPU compute were very limited. It's going to be a bloodbath for engineers going forward until we get the 'next big thing' as this pops.

there has never been a point in my adult life when the phrase 'get while the gettin's good' hasn't been a guiding truism and nothing in my childhood prepared me to be that ruthless.

Started with crypto - use GPUs to make fake money for Ponzi schemes Now it's use GPUs to make a failing company. I can only assume there's a lot of embezzlement going on, because the alternative is too stupid
