It might lead to us being able to get AI datacenter level GPUs to run our own models on for relatively cheaply as ewaste. Wouldn't that be cool?

No one said it had to go in someone's home. Would it not be peossible if they were able to be acquired second hand, to find use by someone or someones that weren't the original buyer(s)?

Alright, sure buddy. You've got a 14.3Kw hookup (per 2U sever blade) and a glycol loop at your small business... These data centers operate at scales beyond the level of normal people or businesses. It'll end up ewaste or I'll eat my shoe, I've seen it time and time again with university super clusters and these are no different.

I don't really understand the hostility. I just asked you a question and rather than an explanation you answer with this and downvote. I guess that was my mistake for giving you the benefit of the doubt.

The hostility is that you're questioning my answer already without even bothering to do the most basic of research, it's frankly whiny and annoying. To answer you again though. No. It's not possible you're installing any of this hardware anywhere second hand. As I originally stated. Anything else is copeium.

Your behavior and tone in this thread has been incredibly hostile towards people simply for expressing ideas you didn't like or think was possible. If this is how you respond to people discussing these kinds of topics maybe you shouldn't participate in our communities.
