AI chips arnt usable for personal use though, they seem to be limited to be used by the AI datancenters and not your computers
Not strictly, there are usualy hurdles to overcome for home usage of datacentre tech, but it's possible.
An easy example that comes to mind is that the datacentre GPU's might have cooling configurations that rely on a large amount of airflow from the surrounding cabinet, which you'll get in a datacentre, but not so much in a personal tower.
Also, noise, in a datacentre, noise is much less of an issue than in a personal computer, so they can eschew noise reduction in favour of performance.
Many people that live near data-centres would disagree, but i mean strictly from a usage point of view, not a broader community perspective.
