Developers often need GPU compute power but find cloud providers expensive. Build a platform that pools unused Apple Silicon GPUs from personal Macs, offering cheaper access. Users earn credits by sharing their GPU. Start with basic macOS client and job scheduling. Main risk is reliability vs cloud providers.
Distributed GPU cloud using idle Macs

Why now
Many Macs sit idle with powerful GPUs, while devs pay for cloud GPU access.
