Dude I barely eat half the time, regardless it's a piss poor trade given how AI is quite literally worthless to me. It could disappear tomorrow and I wouldn't notice if no one talked about it at least for the shit that these data centers are for. For all the resources dumped into this dumbfuck AI race we could've done damned near anything else and have gotten more value for it with a fraction of the economic and environmental cost, even a bridge to nowhere has better utility.

So how's bout we go down the have no AI and do literally anything else bargain.

It's useless to you, but not to other people. Libraries are useless to me because I pirate books, but I'm not going to say it's a waste

Where do you think the pirated books come from?

Usually library copies
