      Baker explains GPUs got 50x faster while data center infrastructure only got 4-5x faster, causing low utilization.

      “GPUs have gotten 50 times faster, and the rest of the data center has only gotten four to five times faster. And that is why MFU is so low.”

      Patel shows that $50 billion in data center capacity depends on just $1.2 billion worth of EUV tools.

      “I need about three and a half EUV tools to do the 2,000,000 EUV wafer passes for the gigawatt. So three and a half EUV tools satisfies the gigawatt.”

      Patel calculates one gigawatt of AI capacity requires only 3.5 EUV tools costing $1.2B.

      “Because we're talking oh, what's a gigawatt cost? It costs like $50,000,000,000 roughly. Right? Whereas, what does three and a half EUV tools cost? That's like 1.2.”
