(X) Doubt

Here's a list of the 50 biggest AI companies from April of this year. 3/4 companies on that list are located in the Bay Area. If companies are already willing to pay higher than average taxes, wages, and property costs to be located in California. I doubt, "You've got to publish safety standards on your website" is going to be the thing that drives them out of California.

CalCompute sounds like it's going to allow for more innovation than ever given that it should lower the barrier to entry for edge AI research.
