Elon himself is quoted as saying that orbital data centers will be the cheapest way to train AI in two or three years. That's probably true given the long-lasting Voyager probe is 1 light-day out from the sun, and still operating 50 years after launch. Being out in space must keep computers well-oiled and operating smoothly, so we can expect nothing but greatness from them in orbit. | ||
