## Quote — verbatim

> If you can optimize your bandwidth and your energy costs, I think having a GPU data center at home is not a far-out reality. And we have the partners, we have distribution to get there... We think we'll have it ready by next six months.

Home config must fit residential limits — "a typical house in the U.S. runs at around 15 amps at 120 volts, which gives you about maximum 1,800 watts" [00:33:43]; still "decently profitable" at that size. Confirms host's vision of a device where excess solar funnels into AI compute that "will pay for the solar and the battery and everything" [00:32:47].
