## Quote — verbatim

> Instead of a few large hyperscale data centers, you want to be able to have small edge-optimized clusters that could be available in a residential or office setting that draws less than 50 kW capacity. That's something that can be easily facilitated in a residential environment through solar... 10,000 of these clusters can actually build the biggest and the best state-of-the-art model.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

His concrete alternative to hyperscale: ~$2M Nvidia clusters distributed across homes/offices, coordinated by crypto incentives ("Akash is a decentralized trust control plane") [00:18:28]; "a residence is a phenomenal place for an edge data center with enough incentives" [00:19:12].
