Amazon Web Services (AWS) raised the prices of its GPU instances for machine learning by around 15 percent this weekend, without warning, reports The Register.
The price increase applies in particular to EC2 Capacity Blocks for ML, where, for example, the cost of the p5e.48xlarge instance rose from $ 34.61 to $ 39.80 per hour.
AWS had previously announced that their prices would be updated in January, but did not indicate in which direction. In the past, the company has almost always lowered prices or changed pricing models rather than raising them directly.
