Vectordash: GPU instances for deep learning

What's your licensing situation with Nvidia regards their prohibition [1] on datacenter deployment for 'consumer' cards?

It does not sound like they are deploying in datacenters: https://vectordash.com/hosting/

That said, the license also has this:

No Sublicensing or Distribution. Customer may not sell, rent, sublicense, distribute or transfer the SOFTWARE; or use the SOFTWARE for public performance or broadcast; or provide commercial hosting services with the SOFTWARE.

which seems to prohibit Vectordash's individual hosts from participating.

Ah right, hadn't seen that. Thanks! If the vectordash team are reading, I'd make the nature of the service a bit clearer to potential users. There's no mention I can find outside the 'hosting' page that these aren't your machines.

Gotcha! I’ll update the copy to make that a bit clearer.

I have no real idea but sometimes its better to ask forgiveness rather than permission (i'm not in any way associated with this service).
