It's in Nvidia's interest to charge the absolute maximum they can without their customers failing. Every dollar of Nvidia's margin is your own lost margin. Utilities don't do that. Nvidia is objectively a way bigger liability than electricity rates.

Just expanding on the above sentence “utilities don’t do that”. Which is why depending on Nvidia isn’t like depending on electricity.

I can try. Which part is confusing to you, the "nvidia will charge as much as it can" part or the "utilities won't" part?
