I just got my BeagleBone AI today from mouser, and I'm noticing severe 
thermal issues even when the BeagleBone isn't doing much.
/sys/class/thermal is reporting over 100C within 10 minutes of the power 
being connected. 
At which point the safety features kick in and the power to the device gets 
shut off.

Is this normal???  Does the BeagleBone AI require a fan to be usable at all?

Also of interest is the free command is showing only 512MB of RAM instead 
of the 1GB it should. 
And the /proc file system is showing that a very generic device tree is 
being used.

This is an AI directly out of the box using only the preinstalled 
software.   I'm waiting for the serial debug cable to arrive that I ordered 
today
before I try reinstalling everything and maybe try lowering the clock speed.

Just thought this would be useful to other people.
