That’s why this stuff should be a government mega project ultimately.

It is not market viable but it is sure as heck revolutionary. Like an atomic bomb but including more… peaceful uses.

That’s exactly where government should take rein like with ISS etc. However the models are too rapidly advancing for now for it to make sense

The government isn't going to be making chip fabs go any faster which is the biggest limitation here.

The second big issue is that it takes months to fab chips meaning your hardware AI is months to maybe a year or more behind the times when it lands.

I do think it makes sense for something like a medical scanner where the model simply doesn't need constant updates, but that doesn't need government involvement to ship.
