## Quote — verbatim

> Can I have a sovereign AI in the home? I think most people would want an AI in the home as long as it guarantees privacy. And I'm building that... We did a feasibility study: is there any way you can have sovereign AI in a semi-professional data center that takes 30 kilowatts of energy, in the home, that is cost efficient?

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

The answer (next block) was yes: five H200 HGX clusters (~40 chips, ~$500K), one dedicated to the home, four rented on Akash at ~$2.30/hr at 80% utilization — capex plus opex recovered within five years, further offset by solar and selling excess power back to the grid.
