With everything going on lately regarding AI policy, and the cat already being out of the bag with AI systems that can run on feasibly obtainable personal compute, at what point do things tip over governments confiscating said compute in order to enforce a certain regulatory goal?Today s regulation is mostly targeted at frontier labs, hyperscalers, chip makers, etc. But if compute is the choke point, and things are getting more efficient, where is the limiting principle on the way down ?At what point do registration, licensng, remote attestation, “secure hardware” reqs begin to touch personally owned compute, homelabs, local inference boxes, small private clusters, etc?What is the realistic escalation path before personal compute becomes regulated compute?
