A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Ed Zitron has been talking about this for months. So much of the value of these companies is based on the assumption that they're going to have these massive data centers built in the next year, yet nobody is asking even where they're being built or how they're going to be made.

Just like with any bubble, there’s potential for a small number of these companies to wildly succeed, when the rest collapse. There’s no value in the implementation details, only in the gamble that it will be the one

They'll just use diesel generators instead and if they run out of those they'll probably start dragging old coal locomotives out of museums too and rigging those up to turn a generator, fuck the environment the AI must grow!

For emergency power generators in case of power outages. Data centers need so much power, that they require actual jet engines for emergency power generators.
