> One good trick for describing a project concisely is to explain it as a variant of something the audience already knows. It’s like Wikipedia, but within an organization. It’s like an answering service, but for email. It’s eBay for jobs. This form of description is wonderfully efficient.
Seems the risk of this is a loose simile.
Edit: Though, thinking about it, Airbnb for GPUs is fairly accurate for this model of a marketplace where people let out their GPUs for others to rent.
Yeah I think in general it's a decent strategy. I'm this case it falls short for me because a key element of Airbnb is that the assets (homes/rooms) are provided by the user base, whereas this product doesn't seem to do that at all. So the strategy of using familiar companies is good, but I think it only works when the functional correlation is strong. In this case I don't think it is.
More so than the electricity of the GPU, is the electricity in cooling the GPUs heat. (In most cases cooling, in some cases, I’m guessing the heat might be a welcome bonus but that’s more rare)
