The GPU situation must be dire for this to happen

Unless you’re Jensen Huang. The man can certainly afford a few more leather jackets now.
I hope all this AI money sloshing around spurs other players to make compelling GPUs.

I don't think that's possible. Very few fabs can manufacture these chips, and they are either several years away from completion, or fully booked for about that long.

It isn't just GPUs, it is the whole supply chain. Data center companies are having their best years ever and that trickles down the food chain.
It is very hard to source the power required now.

Oracle's GPU setup is pretty good - good availability, interconnects, and support. It's the primary selling point of OCI these days and they do it well - unlike the other clouds, they are focused on making NVIDIA chips work well instead of creating their own competing chip.
The rest of OCI is a step down, but it's mostly good enough

You can see all alternative GPU providers: https://gpumonger.com/cloud-gpu-providers as well as the main ones.
Oracle has great GPU prices: https://gpumonger.com/cloud-gpu-provider/oracle-cloud

You need to fix the layout/rendering of your charts, specifically the last column, pricing...

I think I get it. There's no horizontal scroll bar until you reach the very distant bottom, so if you don't know to middle click to scroll sideways, it looks like pricing is the last column, and it's cut off until you scroll that way.
