I've been wrong before. However, when was the last time this business model made sense -- that facebook, SpaceX and others, all just pivot from their market niche to general purpose AI datacenter providers.

How on Earth does this make sense?

What happens in a few years when DeepSeek runs on the chinese chips like the Huawei Ascend at a fraction of the cost ?

These are all very high value added companies going into comodity AI hosting and they're all going to make a killing?
