That’s not true. For less than $15k and a high electricity bill, you can train and run very powerful AI models yourself, today. And you have broad choices of which open weight model to run. And it’s easy to switch them out. No “they” in the mix at all
nor do they have extra money to pay high electricity bills NOR pay for good information feeds to feed the model
for now. “They” are just beginning the legislative process. In 20 years what will the landscape lookblike? What kinds of blocks, filters, gov reporting will be mandated?
I’m keen on local models but prices are getting out of hand. I insured my workstation recently for more than twice what I built it for, because it’d cost that to rebuild it with identical parts.
The AI that they let us have will only know the information they have approved.

My graphics card, which I bought used, is now worth more than the entire rest of my computer was new. This is nuts!
