## Quote — verbatim

> There's a lot of work that happened in the last few years on low communication algorithms, asynchronous algorithms, fault tolerance, all coming together. I believe in the next six \[months\] to one year you'll actually see a truly decentralized model, or a model that's trained on truly decentralized networks... it's not decentralized yet, but it will be, very very very soon.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Time-bound prediction (from Oct 2025) that AI training will decentralize, forced by the energy crisis — "we cannot build new supply of energy faster in America anymore." He notes incentives for contributing compute to training runs remain unsolved.
