    They’re more than happy to create all this power to make predictive text machines, but not for actual people.

    Almost 10 percent t of the entire planet’s GDP isn’t that much.

      Yeah, but that's just because "nobody wants to work"

    Those sociopaths burning the planet and pumping out all the water are completely out of touch with reality. They would rather destroy the planet for some Annoying Idiocy .

      pumping out all the water

      lmao, what? Water is like the ultimate renewable resource.

      It’s crazy to me that AI companies are spinning up their own nuclear power plants to train AI, green energy is flourishing better than any projection a decade ago said it would, and AI critics are now upset that datacenters use evaporative cooling…

        For that, we’ll need a super-AI! If only some naive rube heroic billionaire would be brave enough to fund it!

    Maybe after 9 trillion fucking dollars they’ll realize that it’s a scam and you can’t achieve AGI let alone super intelligence by throwing infinite data at an LLM.

    Just imagine if that money went towards improvements in society, instead of a pump and dump scheme for the top 0.01%

    I think these assholes should be held to their claims. In this case that means the money comes directly out of his pocket.
