GPUs are the superiority play: an open GPU market the cloud doesn't have
Akash Weekly - October 28th 2022 (Akash Network)
“With GPUs we’ll start seeing superiority — that means for the first time you’ll see Akash deliver something the current cloud does not have, which is an open market for GPUs… we’re offering GPUs for 20 [percent] cheaper, and this ubiquitous amount of GPUs, all the way from… proof of work miners, after the merge, moving to proof of stake… having very powerful GPUs.” — 00:43:23
Context: Post-Ethereum-merge GPU supply thesis; later adds GPUs were “still 5x price from their market” and Akash is “the only way that can tap into unused GPU capacity” for general-purpose ML like TensorFlow (00:55:29).
