Funny thing, early deployments of a few Garbage Producing Transformers, and the base will be drowned out by the mess created and even humans will have problems telling what is right, much less a machine. Ever increasing amount to work out what is sense and what is a convincing lie.
I haven't crunched the numbers on this, but CO2 air capture is incredibly inefficient, and it consumes energy which itself releases heat. So if the amount of CO2 you capture reduces heat by X degrees but you release Y degrees in energy consumption to achieve that where Y > X, that would be one interpretation of "thermodynamically unviable". It seems implausible to me but not impossible.

And the amount of CO2 gathered by direct air capture is also negligible, so you can't just hand wave a position that one negligible amount is obviously greater than another.
Unfortunately the plan is very dangerous as tectonic activity has a tendency to release it plus any hurricane or monsoon or thaiphoon or such has a tendency to destroy the installation or worse, move it somewhere where it will do damage to the ecosystem.
Also, use solar and wind ships instead. We don't need to sink more nuclear material...
Training is rather resource intensive either in time, RAM or VRAM. So it takes rather top end hardware. For the moment, nVidia's stuff works best if cost is no object.
For running them, you want a GPU. The limitation is that the model fits in VRAM or the performance will be slow.
But if you don't care about speed, there's more options.
Really except for the networking (including say Bluetooth) nobody is big endian anymore. So how about just don't leak that thing from the network layer.
And do not define any data format to be big endian anymore. Deine it as little endian (do not leave it undefined) and everyone will be happy.
For the more scummier or illegal elements on the network, that is true. For onion services, lasering attacks and takeovers plus honeypot are the chief danger.
Dead Internet Theory is already in motion.
