A comment on Nvidia Allegedly Engineered Scarcity by Funding AI Startups to Buy Its GPUs. Parent comment
An engine maker makes money selling engines for energy production.
Then someone invents cars.
The engine maker sees a 10x bigger market, but they have cash and the car inventor does not.
The engine maker funds the car inventor, to create a big distribution channel.
Some things are larger in proportion.
There's nothing wrong with this as long as investors are aware of the structure.
