I did start to use them for AI development on the HPC I have access to and it worked well (GPU pass-through basically automatically, the performace seemed basically the same) - but I mostly use them because I do not want to argue with administrators anymore that it's probably time they update Cuda 11.7 (as well as python 3.6) - the only version of Cuda currently installed on the cluster.

Curious though, how are you doing this work without admin privs?
