Well, other than your ability to turn that into cash by renting it out for the highest price to someone who needs it, you can promise prospective employees that are supposed to use that infra to train models that they won’t be compute starved.

You can kick off more model training runs and experiments than your competitors.

You can kick off a $1-2t IPO claiming you are going to capture a large portion of the largest TAM the world has ever seen.

Training a model that is larger than your competitor's.
