No that makes no sense. They only need a tiny device to act as a proxy. It makes no sense to colocate the expensive GPUs

Source? There's definitely shady people paying people to host proxies, but hyperscalers doing it would be surprising.

Which hyperscalers are doing that? I've heard of one startup trying this, XFRA, currently in early pilot phases. But I'd be pretty surprised to hear that AWS or Google are paying people to host GPU clusters in their home.
