It's it a good rush to want to run open models on your own computer? This isn't like Bitcoin mining where there is some direct monetary reward for hoarding compute.

Either gold rush or fear of missing out if you ask me.

I've succesfully run (not trained) local models * on my mac mini that cost less than a single video card anyway.

* That fit in my ram. They were probably slower than the FOMO hardware but good enough.

it is a gold rush from nvidia's perspective in that they're selling shovels
