That they sell to the public? No way. They’ve clearly given up on server stuff and it makes sense for them.

That they use INTERNALLY for their servers? I could certainly see this being useful for that.

Mostly I think this is just to get money from the AI boom. They already had TB5, it’s not like this was costing them additional hardware. Just some time that probably paid off on their internal model training anyway.

Given up is not a given. A lot of the exec team has been changing.

		And if the rumors are right -- that hardware SVP John Ternus is next in line for CEO -- I could see a world where the company doubles-down on their specialized hardware vs. services.
