This isn't too bad of a situation if this GPU provides 100% of your value proposition. but, if you needed your product to perform 5 such tasks - or competition/customer demand forces you to move to a bigger model with a 10 words per second inference rate then you may find it hard to balance customer value vs. price vs. margin.
