A lot of scientists, tinkerers, renderers and such would love cheap A100s and up.
On the contrary, I don’t think they will get cheaper. Somehow they’ll get bought back and trashed (like Nvidia has done in the past), hoarded, something that that.

They wont let them leave because it’d be falling into “the competitions” hands.
They’ll shred every single last bit of silicon.
