      People who previously were at the high end of GPU can now afford used H100s -> they sell their GPUs -> we can maybe afford them

      Yep and if OpenAI goes under the whole market will likely crash, people will dump their GPUs they’ve been using to create models and then boom, you’ve got a bunch of GPUs available.

        That would depend entirely on why OpenAI might go under. The linked article is very sparse on details, but it says:

        These expenses alone stack miles ahead of its rivals’ expenditure predictions for 2024.

        Which suggests this is likely an OpenAI problem and not an AI in general problem. If OpenAI goes under the rest of the market may actually surge as they devour OpenAI’s abandoned market share.
