They are going to have the necessary launch capability. The rest are bound to the surface. Anyway, that demonstrates another way of datacenters getting modularized. The point is that the actual volume of datacenters to be produced calls for

the datacenter demand wouldn't evaporate, it will probably change instead - i expect that the datacenters will soon be built like pre-fab homes or like the Liberty ships - the fastest ship was built in less than 5 days. In such a modu

Distillation isn't a copy. Distillation is more akin to "clean room" implementation. Also note that the OpenAI/Anthropic argument is that the model training is sufficiently transformative to satisfy the fair use of the o
