## Quote — verbatim

> We announced this program called Star Cluster program at Akash Accelerate... We're partnering with a few telecoms... we have access to energy across America, we have access to about I think two million homes through our partners that we can go into potentially. We're currently selecting ideal houses — solar and bandwidth are two big variables.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Overclock Labs program to prove distributed AI training on home/edge infrastructure; later in the episode he says "22 million homes," so the figure is inconsistent in the captions.
