The AI Gigafactories call is now open.

@HennaVirkkunen AI Tech sovereignty comes more from genuinely open models owned by the end user, not centralised control where we all just become passive consumers.

@NiwlCraft @HennaVirkkunen in this case I think that they are ensuring that European companies can also steal IP.

@HennaVirkkunen Thank you! I thought all the government officials who'd been hopelessly corrupted by AI money were here in the USA! I appreciate you reminding me that people are terrible everywhere!

[ginevracat@toot.community]

@uichelorraine @courtcan @HennaVirkkunen Absolutely!

[hejsimon@mastodon.social]

@HennaVirkkunen perfect timing to announce this when pretty much all of Europe is burning

[kierkegaanks@beige.party]

@HennaVirkkunen That’s also a way to become a subsection on wikipedia in the future

@HennaVirkkunen

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

"How can we dance
When our earth is turning?
How do we sleep
While our beds are burning?"

@HennaVirkkunen @uichelorraine And not to forget happy.

This is the most in character for the European Union thing I've ever heard of. "No, the problem with the Torment Nexus isn't that it's the fucking Torment Nexus, it's that it doesn't fly one of 26 of these lovely flags as its national home."

@HennaVirkkunen
This is a scam and we want none of it.
How can you feel pleased about this at a time when people can't afford a fraction of that computing hardware at home and the water used and contaminated by those gigafactories is urgently needed where forests, businesses and homes are burning to the ground?
What the hell is wrong with you? Why is everyone at the European People's Party so focused on destroying the European Union?

[naturemc@mastodon.online]

@HennaVirkkunen Meanwhile, Europe is on fire, we have extreme #droughts and #heatwaves, farmers don't have enough water. In France, they have to take off nuclear stations because no more cooling water. In Spain, datacenters already cause desertification.
How blind and unresponsable politics can be???
Be sure, people will hold you responsable for such #environmental crimes in times of #climatecrisis and #WaterSafety problems!
Forget lobbyist's marketing, think of our environment's future.

@HennaVirkkunen I am sorry to say you are too late to the party. Data center scheme is folding and this will age not well.

[thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io]

@HennaVirkkunen Have you read the room lately? Because this is literal insanity in a time where climate change is killing tens of thousands of people every summer in Europe. What is wrong with all of you?

[jones@mvm.lol]

@HennaVirkkunen a step in the right direction!

[sinvega@mas.to]

@HennaVirkkunen Today, we called for applications from the world league of wallet inspectors

@HennaVirkkunen

NIABY. Not in anyone's back yard! Going along in the mindless AI arms race is not the way.

[linza@kamu.social]

@HennaVirkkunen Hei Henna; we will always remember the moment you sold out.

You sound like an American.
