We were promised a frictionless, intelligent future. Instead we’re building gas plants so a chatbot can confidently invent court cases and recommend glue on pizza. Apparently the cloud was just a smokestack with better branding. Big Tech gets the profits, everyone else gets the asthma.
Don’t forget to add sodium bromide instead of salt to reduce your blood pressure …to zero.
Well, when the common american think that a solar panel could suck all the sun I don’t see any possible solution.
Ugh… can I move to where you are? I hate being lumped in with morons like that.
Not that in Italy we have not idiots…
That seems to be the consensus everywhere, sadly. I feel like Americans are going for the gold like it’s an Olympic competition, though
Oh don’t worry, nowhere on the globe is short of idiots.
They could have at least used this AI hell as an opportunity to roll out tons of new solar. Which would have actually been more cost effective. But a small handful of oil industry assholes need to get their last cut from the techbro dbags while humanity collapses.
Thank you! Would love if futurism posts were banned. They are just click bait AI most of the time…
We are morally obligated to stop data centers and not use LLMs whenever possible. My field of work is continuing to pivot towards AI and I know I‘m not going to sit on my ass and prompt shit for a living. I‘d rather do anything else with my time.
This is wonderful news for all the oligarchs! They see a headline like this and are likely cheering and sharing champagne.
across the US
and ofc its in the U.S.A
Amazing how much damage is being caused and how much money is being dumped into this so we can fire people and generate shitty articles for social media and help scammers rob people.
…and that is the whole fucking point.
Electricity is woke unless it’s generated by fossil fuel.
Data centers are deleting the progress we’ve made.
No, it’s killing the entire planet that much faster.
America is an existential threat.
So that’s the reason they want more data centers… Now it makd sense
And as we all know… not a fucking thing is going to be done about it. So unless citizens are willing to take matter into their own hands, I’d suggest we all just shut up about it.
Surely that is Demented’s end game? Locking the US into fossil fuels is his stated goal which no doubt will be extremely painful for the USA.
It will lock the US into permanent, irrevocable decline. Up to now it’s technically been a nose-dive that could have been pulled out of.
This will absolutely seal the deal, permanently. From the massively increased costs of everything, to the future political (and financial) costs of being the last massive polluter left when everyone else pivots to cheaper renewables less dependent on oil cartels and proxy wars.
