Patel dubs Amazon's Trainium chip the Amazon Basics TPU due to less efficient but cost-effective design.
“Yeah. So so funnily enough, Amazon's chip is the Amazon I I call it the Amazon's basics TPU. Right?”
Patel reports Trainium rents for under $10 billion per gigawatt while GPUs cost $12-13 billion.
“Tranium sells at sub $10,000,000,000 per gigawatt rental rate to Anthropic and to OpenAI. GPUs, at least before the craziness of the last six months, usually went around 12 to $13,000,000,000 per gigawatt.”
