And this is like one of the key things that WASm has made available and that allows for, like you said, time. It basically means that there’s less wasted time, but it also provide, opens the door for newer, more efficient platforms like this

2024-06-13 22:18 Do you know what? I had a conversation from people outside of the big three, the big cloud providers. So in Texas, there’s a company called build AI. They’ve been doing some work to basically they’ll provide you computing, but at certain peak times, you don’t have access to it. And as a result, they’re able to have much lower costs for this stuff.
