## Quote — verbatim

> I think the first use cases will be the birth of decentralized machine learning or DML on Akash. And then... that will lead to autonomous self-replicating AI. And I think I predict like self-replicating AI to be one of the biggest users of Akash much more than humans. Because it doesn't have cognitive load or cognitive attacks a human need to incur to use Akash.

He had just noted "when AI wants to self-replicate, Akash will be the best place for self-replicate" and that "Akash network, if you shorten it, it's Skynet... hiding in plain sight" ([00:20:35]–[00:21:23]).
