AI companies lose a lot of money training models but have much better margins on inference. They try to ban training to reduce their costs and to keep their monopoly. (Personal opinion)
I think it’s at least equally important to be sceptical of bad ideas, in order to let good ideas win. From a consumer perspective, smart fridges are usually bad.
Everything has a big upfront Capex. However you finance it and because renewables are cheap fuel they come out cheap in the long run.
A large part of the Capex of renewables is land costs - which are high, but once you have the land you keep it. This cost is generally all financed as part of the initial build, so in 30 years everything is paid for - but you have to finance to replace only the renewables while keeping the land and so the second round is a lot cheaper.
Including the cost of the batteries to make it stable over the day? Would need a source for that. My understanding is it comparable at best, but certainly not "much cheaper".
