## Quote — verbatim

> Ideally we want supply to come from our home. We're not there yet — we're getting there with decentralized training and whatnot. But from a fault tolerance standpoint, if you can have a home device, be it your PS5 or any PlayStations or Xboxes that just sit in idle — I use my Xbox maybe once a year during Christmas.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

On where Akash supply should ultimately come from; cites the US Air Force's PS2-based supercomputer as precedent and invites Sony "to play the Akash game."
