The funny thing is, no matter how many corners they cut on safety, these things will never be economically viable. And even if they somehow got the technology to work, who is going to buy these things without proper certification? Even if they manage to sell a bunch to the AI bros, to make their data centers even more pernicious, without an export market, this will just be another gigantic money pit, where the taxpayer is left to pick up the tab.
