That solves maybe a single problem associated with AI. Energy and water use is still massive, nobody's job prospects are improved in any way, the brain drain still happens, and creativity still goes to die in a corner.

What water use does your phone have? Because an Orange PI has none. You can run it off a $5 solar panel and thus the energy problem is not there.
