I work in IT and as such I work in AI because there's no getting away from the hype in my line of work.
But I don't believe in it and I think it can be very harmful for society. I see a few nice things about it (people with disabilities for example) but mostly negative.
To be honest I'm looking forward to the news of datacenters going up in flames. Which I'm pretty sure will happen when people start losing their jobs en masse.
Or all the water in their state (see Utah) or raising the temps so high their power bills are the size of a mortgage.
Tbh theres probably not going to be water in utah by the time the data center finishes construction. And utah will likely be uninhabitable.
I didn’t realize Utah was so bad with their water supply. That’s a bummer to hear because that state is beautiful.
If you find a desolate arid desert beautiful, then yes. It’s a whitish brown Arizona.
