A red county near me recently stopped a new datacenter build. The promoters would never say who would use it. They claimed NDA. The citizens there did not buy the story.
So, they are now floating the same in a different red county, that has less water supply, and less infrastructure.
Clearly they are speculating.

Just in case you had the slightest doubt about what Elon Musk is doing with X/Twitter, look at this brief thread. He is one of the true monsters of our era, and he uses X/Twitter to guide his fellow right-wing extremists to ever-more-extreme places.
If you are still there, you should be ashamed.
This sounds horrifying: https://www.hpcwire.com/2025/11/19/new-world-order-coming-with-new-doe-supercomputers/
Apparently Oracle will be operating the next big DOE systems. I don't have words...

Black families spend more of their income on energy bills than the average U.S. household – a gap tied to older housing, rental barriers and the legacy of redlining.

i checked mine and yep. check yours.
EDIT: hi FOSS evangelists, we're already on fucking Mastodon. This is like walking up to someone in church who's wearing a white collar and asking if they've heard of Jesus.
Horse, barn. The data was likely already fed to the model.
The data must be encrypted by *you* before storing in a cloud.
“OpenAI and Ive [are] working on a device roughly the size of a smartphone that users would communicate with through a camera, microphone and speaker. One person suggested it might have multiple cameras.”
So… like… a phone?
“…designed to sit on a desk or table but can also be carried around by the user.”
So… like… a phone?
“…sensors would gather data throughout the day that would help to build its virtual assistant’s ‘memory.’”
So… like… a phone?
Of course they are. Must feed taxpayer money to outside AI contractors, and make Government not function.
How will the courts learn I am using one?
What can they even do about it?
You are being charged with the offense of not visiting multiple websites that have ad-blocker detection.
Centralized. Their model was centralized because it used an LLM. Purely flawed study.
It actually made the point that decentralized is good.
Note there was no mention of #Fediverse
Zuckerberg says people without AI glasses will be at a disadvantage in the future https://techcrunch.com/2025/07/30/zuckerberg-says-people-without-ai-glasses-will-be-at-a-disadvantage-in-the-future/
"AGI" is whatever makes "AI" companies' stocks go up.
I was talking to someone yesterday (let's call them A) and they had another "AI" experience, I thought might happen but hadn't heard of before.
They were interacting with an organization and upon asking a specific thing got a very specific answer. Weeks later that organization claimed it had never said what they said and when A showed the email as proof the defense was: Oh yeah, we're an international organization and it's busy right now so the person who sent the original mail probably had an LLM write it that made shit up. It literally ended with: "Let's just blame the robot ;)".
(Edit: I did read the email and it did not read like something an LLM wrote. I think we see "LLM did it" emerging as a way to cover up mistakes.)
LLMs as diffusors for responsibility in corporate environments was quite obviously gonna be a key sales pitch, but it was new to me that people would be using those lines in direct communication.
Google's emissions are up over 50%, Amazon builds huge data centers powered by 75% natural gas.
Remember all those posts telling us that "AIs climate impact isn't that bad" supported by some really funky math/perspective and/or numbers Sam Altman invented?
Here's the actual impact.
"AI" is a fossil fuel technology.
Vance to Zelensky: “Have you said thank you once?”
Trump to Zelensky: "Your country is in big trouble. No, no, you've done a lot of talking. Your country is in big trouble. You're not winning this."

Last video from another view shows Oksana Markarova, #Ukraine’s ambassador to the US, visibly showing disgust at this shitshow.
[apologies if videos are out of order or overlap. Throwing this together for posts]
