why did they call them "ai datacenters" when they could have called them "slopping malls"

@ana@starlite.rodeo Too much whimsy for techbros

@ana@starlite.rodeo adding this to my voice over list if that's alright ️

@NNN@bettercities.top @ana@starlite.rodeo there are very many such datacenters spread across the USA. my first job was working in one

[nnn@bettercities.top]

@ana
There was an Omaha Nebraska USA datacenter that had been built in a dead mall... not sure it's still there.

@failedLyndonLaRouchite @ana we can argue about whether that is true or not. but even assuming that is true, that doesn't fix the massive social, ethical, political and environmental issues with this technology

@ana@starlite.rodeo

Because that would've required some creative thinking, which they proved they have none of lol

@failedLyndonLaRouchite @ana "you can call me a fool or knave or liar, but that is what I and a lot of other think"

I do think this is the spectrum where you and "a lot of other" are, yes. You're either grifting, getting grifted, or being discarded in the AI game.

@ana they tore down a mall and plan on putting a data center there near me. So yeah, that definitely fits.

@luc0x61@mastodon.gamedev.place @ana@starlite.rodeo Wrong way around: It is first sold as gold and then randomly mixed <img class=“not-responsive emoji” src=“https://pleroma.envs.net/emoji/drgn/drgn_blep.png” title=“:drgn_blep:” />
