## Quote — verbatim

> For the most part, the challenge in home is going to be bandwidth, to serve reliably. Starlink does about 400 to 500 \[Mbps\] capacity right now. There could come a day where it could do over a gigabit to 2 gigabit capacity — that's, I think, when we will start seeing more effective inference at home.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Bandwidth, not energy, as the binding constraint for home inference; inference otherwise belongs in telco-style data centers in every city.
