So exciting! We'd be walking amongst our GAI brethren this very day if it weren't for the computational limits of those pesky RNGs!

I can sell you a solution to that in AWS/Azure (or on prem) today if you really want to use a TRNG for your ML training :)

They are very energy efficient (measured in pJ/bit), but non-cryptographic PRNGs, which are typical for ML, are far more efficient.

It's not obviously wrong to think that AI algorithms will pick up bias from "overfitting" to their PRNGs used during training, but I'm not expecting the benefits to be very large.
