  That will be tough. The problem is the chip fabs. The entire auto industry couldn’t get them to budge when they needed chips that the fabs didn’t want to make, so I don’t think Valve has any real chance.

    This. Building a new supply chain is no small feat and can take years of planning. We are all caught on our back foot by these contracts, unfortunately, even though no money has been spent and the data centers haven’t been built.

    We’re suffering for the collective delusion of billionaires.
