No one, except the people who own them, knows exactly what data centers are doing. What kind of data? For what purposes? Did the Internet suddenly need more capacity so AI builders can steal more data? Is it for surveillance? Financial manipulation?
We simply do not know the actual purpose of data centers.
Taking the word of the owners of data centers is unlikely to end well for most people.
Is anyone else thinking these centers aren't strictly for AI infrastructure, but for surveillance? All the data collected by all of America's Flock cameras, traffic cameras, future CBDC endeavors, etc., has to be collected, collated, and disseminated from somewhere, right?
Ai is said to use 10x the energy of regular computing. So how can our infrastructure, environment and society withstand the energy use of the equivalent of 3.3 BILLION people computing on AI-drive dumb devices just here in the USA? They are keeping it secret because "the devil is in the details."
But would our corporate-owned media keep such a major threat to society and future generations a secret, like they've done since the 70's with fossil fuel use and the climate disruption? You better believe it.
The corporate media has not fairly reported on the outrageous and unsustainable use of finite natural resources by data centers because of their major corporate bias. The media has not reported on companies that abandon their workers for AI and greater profits because of their corporate bias. To be fair, the corporate media never reports on labor issues. It's not a coincidence that Presidential debates on ALL the networks do not address climate disruption and solutions to protect future generations.
Just say NO to data centers. We did fine before now without them. I don't want AI for anything. If a business wants to build a data center, they can pay to power them with solar or wind power. I've got no problem with data centers that do not endanger society and future generations.
Interesting and informative. Although this is a serious requirement for the world moving forward, there are several ways to manage safeguarding and assimilating populations in the community.
China is another major player with respect to this matter, and yet feasible and practical solutions are being taken up there, despite it being an 'authoritarian' structure.
At the end it is all about intent and objective. The human practise and intellect can always be moulded to obtain solutions from any perspective.
And ask if AI is so great why hasn’t it designed resource efficient data centers?
And ask what the data centers are actually doing. Bitcoin mining, anyone?
Data Centers, to further enrich the stinking rich, off Our backs, their greedy fingers in our pockets, clandestinely, like they do on wall street

Your new map is an outstanding service! I'd love to follow up about our Substack Live conversation!

Wonderful question. I would like to know as well.

Autocracy is achieved via incremental actions - then it’s too late.
Louisiana’s governor welcomes data centers with open arms!! 😡
HILL COUNTY TEXAS did not stop the construction. The one in HUBBARD Texas is full steam ahead.

💯 Excellent
This whole data center thing is going to blow up on you. Can't you find something better to Brockovich?
Says 1 of the good old boy middle age white man.
Can you literate any good ideas why we need a 700 acre data center. ILL WAIT.
