Obviously, no body likes the idea of having or living next to a data center. And AI companies want to solve UBI in a sensible manner. Why not combine these two things?
AI companies, go to individual homes in a community, ask to install a GPU cluster (for a size that fits + owner agrees to), and pay the household some 100s or 1000s of dollars a month?
Yes, this will cause wild incentives (for those with apartments, multiple homes, etc.) which would need to be addressed, but surely, this would long term benefit the household and also the AI companies?
Almost like how your internet service provider provides you with a device that provides Wifi, but for GPU compute?
