If you think about it, it's insane how much infrastructure we take for granted (xxx kilowatt of electricity, xxx mbps of internet, all for dirt cheap). Maybe in a near future everyone would need xxx petaflops of compute just as you would any other utility. At least anyone who wants their personal AI secretaries to "learn" and "think" effectively. Historically these utility/infrastructure projects needs to be built by the government since it's a chicken and egg problem. "Internet" companies can only exist after the internet is built. "AI" companies can only exist after gpt3 levels of compute is made available to the everyday person. (There might be a physics argument to why the economy of scale of compute can't go down that much even with nation-level of investments. Usually it ends up with needing to build a dyson swarm. I really hope they are wrong because I don't think I will live to see it)
