Yes, but because cloud services buy GPUs almost exclusively Nvidia, it would likely drive cloud prices down as well.

Also, if you weren't going to use Google's offerings you probably wouldn't be down to buy their HW either :)
FWIW your PTSD with Tensorflow is shared by everyone at Google, it was just unavoidable because Google needed ML to be performant and they started by sacrificing devex for performance whereas Pytorch went ergo-first, performance later. In retrospect a prescient move by Meta, but now making the high performance stuff ergonomic is proving out for Google via XLA and JAX.
