They are not the only ones looking at the money spent in AI datacentres and concluding most of the investment will not be recovered anytime soon.

A lot of the silicon being deployed is great for training, but inefficient for inference and the training to inference ratio for usage shows a clear tendency to go the inference way. Furthermore, that silicon, with the workloads it runs, doesn’t last long and needs replacement.
