I dunno, the scale to zero and pay per second features seemed super useful to me after forgetting to shut down some training instances with AWS. Also the fast startup ability, if it actually works as well as they say, would be amazing for a lot of the type of workloads that I have.
Agreed, but runpod or modal offer the same. Happy to use big cloud for a client if they pay the bills, but for personal quests... too scary.
