    second-hand TPU

    From where? I keep a look out for used Gaudi/TPU setups, but they’re like impossible to find, and usually in huge full-server configs. I can’t find Xeon Max GPUs or CPUs either.

    Also, Google’s software stack isn’t really accessible. TPUs are made for internal use at Google, not for resale.

    You can find used AMD MI100s or MI210s, sometimes, but the go-to used server card is still the venerable Tesla P40.
