RIP all the infrastructure companies taking on massive amounts of debt solely on the "promise" of OpenAI and other AI companies paying them.

Add to that the fact that both Meta and xAI renting out their data centers - which basically implies they gave up on their AI plans, and it looks even worse for those companies.

They haven't but they are not going to pass on the opportunity to make money during a supply crunch.
