## Quote — verbatim

> Let's build a cloud no one can shut down. Let's build the intelligence layer of a free civilization... A type one civilization isn't built on one warehouse or by one company. It's born across a thousand rooftops and million racks and billions of watts all working in harmony... Let's build an open planetary scale AI — resistant, renewable, and unstoppable... Let's meet at Kardashev 1.
