I'm also interested in Azure's FPGA instance capacity which is a comparable counterpart to Google's TPU AFAIK.

From what I know, Google has a large number of TPU units (not sure about the exact numbers, but I would assume this would exceed 5 digits?) and also has the luxury of sharing TPU instances with products that operate one of the largest models on the planet, namely search and ads. So Google has some advantages on flexibility of resource allocation if it really wants to prioritize AI stuffs.
