This year, the price of GPUs has remained higher than average with supply often struggling to keep up with demand. Nick Stapleton, Managing Director of ETB Technologies, said: “The increase in demand for GPUs over the last 24 months has been unprecedented. In all my time working in the industry, I’ve never seen one new piece of technology drive an increase in sales in the way artificial intelligence has. It’s not a trend we expect to change anytime soon either as the appetite for AI among our customers continues to grow. “It is really encouraging to see so many businesses viewing refurbished GPUs as a viable option. This is a trend we hope and expect to see continue as businesses look to wring every last drop of value out of their investment in technology infrastructure.” https://www.etb-tech.com/ Dorset and Cornwall police turn to BT BT has secured a £70 million, ten-year managed IT services contract with Devon & Cornwall Police and Dorset Police.
