The AI boom is so huge it’s causing shortages everywhere else The $700 billion AI spending spree has few precedents. Good luck finding an electrician or a reasonably priced smartphone.

Yeah probably, but I think consumer hacks slash microchip companies might buy them and retrofit them to be GPU’s. If most of them are not just sold to the public, I suspect that nVIDIA et al might buy them back from business customers, and then modify them to re-sell to consumers.
