## Quote — verbatim

> Why not that compute comes from your home? Just like today you're able to produce energy from your renewables at your home and contribute back to the grid, why don't we have a similar mode of compute contribution from your home to the compute grid? That is going to be a reality, and I have no doubt in my mind — if we bet that AI is going to take over our lives.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

His signature energy analogy; preceded by noting "enormous amount of unused compute in your home" (gaming consoles, M2 Macs, phones charging at night).
