Also it hurts if you hit your thumb, an AI will not (at the moment) experience pain.
It's odd though as I actually have some simple AI models running on my PC's graphics card.
They are smart enough to be useful as a tool

Here is KDE5 running on a cheap ARM ChromeBook.
@mrhooman.bsky.social did you enable some kinda swap?
I had to setup zRam to get it to be useful

It looks nice, I bought a KDE SlimBook a few years ago, but wasn't happy with it, going to squeeze KDE onto an ARM Chromebook now, but the laptop above looks nice

(I once went to public a lecture by a TV scientist about black holes and relativity - no maths but he gave a nice explanation)
The light you can see around the horizon is light that (only just) had an escape velocity, it can be highly red-shifted though as it lost a lot of energy getting to you.
