Nvidia just warned AI server prices could rise 15%+.
Not surprising. But a bad sign for AI's future.
Enterprises can absorb it, then pass the cost on.
Startups and scale-ups can't.
Growing AI projects already spend up to 60% of budget on infrastructure. A small cost bump can mean the end of their runway.
Fewer innovative ideas, less competition, and the same few companies tighten their grip.
And that's bad for everyone.
The answer isn't more data centers stuffed with expensive servers.
It's coordinating the underutilized GPU supply that already exists.
That's what @ionet was built for.
