What does that mean? I’m likely missing some context, could anyone explain?

I think Stability is not doing well and ran out of money to pay for all their compute, so they should probably use some Airbnb guests right now.
My understanding is that Stability was renting GPUs from AWS rather than buying them[0]. So they have no capacity per se.
