but surely there are ppl out there smart enough to make it work somehow?

I'm sure they could be made to work. But why would they when they've got the likes of Nvidia producing all the chips they could ever want.

Even if they were made to work, they may still be bad in price / perf and not worth using simply due to being manufactured for a completely different purpose.

prob buy em for pennies on the dollar.
bet in 10 yrs time someone could figure out how to run them on a quarter the energy usage.
