AI compute is the new oil–and needs a new market

AI compute demand is outpacing supply by 10x, forcing companies to optimize models and infrastructure to avoid bottlenecks. This means engineers must prioritize efficiency—smaller models, sparse architectures, and better orchestration—to maintain performance without exorbitant costs.
GPU capacity constraints and fragmented pricing across cloud providers have made raw compute availability—rather than model architecture—the primary cost and scaling bottleneck for production LLM agents. For teams shipping in production, this shift requires moving away from static single-cloud contracts toward dynamic multi-provider orchestration and spot-market arbitration to avoid sudden capacity outages. Strategically adopting these emerging, liquid compute marketplaces allows you to treat GPU time as a flexible, tradeable resource, directly protecting your unit economics against hardware shortages and sudden price spikes.
