The trouble is that it becomes far too easy to fall into the pattern of power being used to garner more power. All power needs to be held in check to avoid that very simple flaw.

It’s not the query that burns through electricity like crazy, it’s training the models.
You can run a query yourself at home with a desktop computer, as long as it has enough RAM and compute cells to support the model you’re using (think a few high-end GPUs).
Training a model requires a huge pile of computer power though, and the AI companies are constantly scraping the internet to stealfind more training material

I see exactly one(1) comment that suggests trying a different distro.
One comment is suggesting using a game streaming application (Moonlight).
One comment is suggesting using the RDP server that comes with Fedora (which jaschen306 stated they are using).
One comment is yours.
One comment is saying it’s probably a hardware issue.
And finally, one comment is suggesting a gaming-focused Linux distro - but specifically calling out that it’s if they’re looking for a gaming distro.
Admittedly I have Hexbear and Lemmygrad blocked, so I might be missing other comments.
