“Since enabling GPUs, the network has scaled roughly from about 150 to about a thousand plus GPUs while sustaining roughly 54 to 55% average utilization across a very heterogeneous fleet — that’s competitive with large clouds and far above typical on-prem. It means few idle watts and more useful gradient steps per kilowatt hour.” — 00:12:32
Context: Presenting Akash’s reverse-auction marketplace as “an autonomous utilization machine”; decentralized fleets hit 50-60% utilization, ~3x on-prem baselines ([00:15:30]).
