A ban on desktop PC components over a certain power threshold (300W) or PSUs would definitely affect local AI, and Europe is not a big enough market, nor has it's own internal supply chains to offer alternatives.
This has been done in the EU/UK in the past (hoovers/vacuum cleaners) so the mechanism exists.
I'm in the UK and support your direction.
- dryarzeg 3mo ago> would definitely affect local AI And not only. Given your example with 300W, it will affect even things like (somewhat advanced) home servers, (mostly) personal self-hosting machines and even just gaming PCs. That would affect way too much, if I understood your thought correctly.
- anax32 3mo agoyes, that's what I thought. "You got a loicense for that PSU?" is my biggest fear!
