god willing

they have to be shut down as well. We cannot share a future with fascists, and 'ai' and ICE are entirely fascist projects.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I don't think it's all that conspiratorial though. These tech companies are already best buddies with this administration and this administration has been pretty clear what they want. “You don't need a formal conspiracy when interests converge.” - George Carlin

I think you're linking things unnecessarily. If ICE or any other govt agency were to commit to mass round ups, available building space wouldn't really be the meaningful constraint.

Yeah, it's not even just that the entire US economy aside from the usual zionist murder weapons and housing bubble again is resting on AI data centers - it's that it's resting on FALSE PROMISES of AI data centers

Ed, next time you swing through Toronto, we'd love to show you some absurd examples of this in WNY just across the lake.

All local government has to do is learn a little bit from history and demand these companies pay the real costs of their infrastructure, water, electricity, and environmental cleanup up front.

And even if you think AI is a solid industry, we have plenty of experience with traditional industries getting infrastructure and tax deals to locate places that they then abandon. Call centers, frack sand mines, there was just a Marketplace segment on a plastics plant in PA.

inshallah

this is exactly what i think every time i see an announcement. "XYZ is going to build data centre the size of central park!" no they're not. "20GW of compute to be built in rural bumshart!" nuh-uh. "world's largest AI data centre ever to be constru-" nope.
