## Quote — verbatim

> With AI, with the way we're going, the permissionless decentralized GPU network is going to be so critical to power this enormous demand that we're getting with AI. And a lot of times you're just interacting with the chatbot or you're interacting with a device, maybe on the Apple Vision Pro, but you're talking to an AI and then AI is using Akash in the background. So you're not going to know.
