A surge in new datacenters, each with the power demand of 100,000 households and a cooling water demand of 1,000,000 m³ per year to train AI models on material obtained without consent on hardware now unaffordable to consumers so fascism-adjacent tech billionaires can sell us the idea that any skill is now worthless and in doing so creating the largest economic bubble ever while simultaneously destroying society and environment.

@oli don't forget the obvious utility of the tool as a easily manipulable conduit for spreading propaganda through biased training, data sets, and/or prompt frames. If you can get people to consider "Asking AI" as equivalent to researching a topic, you can tell a lot of intentional lies and hide a lot of truths. The ease of lying with this tech is a feature to them.
This technology is a means of control.
