Modal Adds NVIDIA L40S GPUs for AI Inference at $1.95/hr

Modal now offers NVIDIA L40S GPUs to all users at $1.95/hr, positioned as a faster, larger-memory alternative to its most popular inference accelerator, the A10. The L40S doubles GPU RAM to 48GB, letting models like Flux.1-schnell run in 16bit precision on a single GPU, and delivers roughly 40% speedup on memory-bound jobs and over 100% on compute-bound 16bit Tensor Core jobs.
