That's not true. For less than $15k and a high electricity bill, you can train and run very powerful AI models yourself, today. And you have broad choices of which open weight model to run. And it's easy to switch them out. No "they" in the mix at all

    1. 99% of people do not have 15k to spend on AI

    2. nor do they have extra money to pay high electricity bills NOR pay for good information feeds to feed the model

    3. for now. "They" are just beginning the legislative process. In 20 years what will the landscape lookblike? What kinds of blocks, filters, gov reporting will be mandated?

    If in 20 years time having a graphics card is illegal, y'all might as well go ahead and collectively commit sudoku as a nation.

    Between phones, tablets, and data centers the age of mass market affordable PC parts is fading.

    Hope it rebounds but idk.

    You could always hire people to be your shipping agents and you could have your stuff sent from China to an EU country and then here. Pay the cheap china prices, pay the vat shipping from the EU country and then have it shipped to the US .

    Then you pay off your people overseas every month like a subscription service fee.

    I'm keen on local models but prices are getting out of hand. I insured my workstation recently for more than twice what I built it for, because it'd cost that to rebuild it with identical parts.
