## Quote — verbatim

> As AI gets more prominent in our daily lives, it's no question that AI is going to get personal... to have a sustainable AI you will have to host your own AI. I think the future is going to be: people that use AI own the AI, and the way you own the AI is to own the computer that runs the AI — just like electricity, if you have a sustainable way of producing electricity instead of depending on the grid, you have a lot more control.

Asked where decentralized compute is going; quote begins in the [00:06:35] block. He grounds it in privacy-critical AI use and the broken GPU demand/supply curve.
