I wonder if this is:

AI use in the real world is still early on, and so it is expensive.

OR

Whoa, slashdot (I guess I'm old, perhaps reddit) effect and we can not afford the bandwidth, quick turn it off!

OR

Same as above but with CPU costs.

I am curious to know the limiting factor.

It's "An AI worthy GPU is scarce and its TDP is 450+ watts, so it's doubly expensive, turn it off!".

CPU's are way cheaper when compared to GPUs, and image bandwidth is at most "mneh!" in Slashdot or in The Register terms. tips hat

Reported from a data center warmed by GPUs.
