AI moves near 800 billion dollars in US investment every year, it is the largest infrastructure project in history, all designed to help 3rd-worlders cheat on exams and generate subsidized porn. I am very afraid America will elect someone who tries to close these data centers, because at this point my entire career depends on it. ChatGPT helped me type out this, I run Claude Code all day working for an outsourced american software company.Why does /pol/ hate these data centers? Are they in danger? Will americans really try to close them if the republicans lose the legislative?
>>540256567Because it's a fake and gay bubble
Because they're a net loss to the ordinary human being. Emphasis on human being.
>>540256567>One day AI might help solve the environmental problems caused by AI.
>>540256567They are gay.
>>540256567They've doubled my electricity prices in just three years and all I got was jewish AI slop, what's not to hate?
>>540256567I'm okay with them. We need to beat China at all costs and if you're against Data Centers you need to be put on a list and thrown in a FEMA camp. I'll gladly get a job to be a detention center officer to lock anti-data center terrorist.
>>540256567It makes lives worse for people around it. >But it creates jobs!Like 20 long term jobs at most. Doesn't take much to run one of these things.>But it brings in so much money!To large corporations that are already getting tax breaks (or being paid) by local governments to be set up there.There is nothing good about them for the average fucker out there. A net negative for most.
>>540256818now that I got that post out of the way, I legally protected myself moving forward
>>540256567you have to understand the typical mindset of a zogbot>thinks life is about getting a stacy knocked up>to be "entitled" to gibsso basically it's land being locked up, removed permanently from the retarded underclass that thinks they get land for popping out ugly mutts
>>540256867Oh yeah, and not to mention most of their use right now are a bunch of talentless thirdies flooding the internet with low effort slop content so they can grift.Imagine wanting to make your lives worse so that thirdies have more power to make your lives worse.
>>540256655>>540256787>>540256871I just don't want communists to take over and close the data centers because my entire livelihood relies on cheap US-based AI foolishness, porn, silly animations and code.
>>540256567fun fact, power lines to the datacenters can be cut, and then power will be cheaper for real people.
>>540257308>domestic terrorism, hehehe, power to the little peopleim sure that impresses the dumb hippie chicks
>>540256567Chuds states love dat centers
>>540256939You are a communist. This is exactly ehat I don't want, some backwater urban hillbilly or college activist to come around and pass some legislation blocking my AI because of muh environment or muh living costs or muh jobs.Thiel said this is a very real possibility, that we might see anti-AI terrorism soon.
>>540257436they cant even impress gooks, dont hold your breath some actual white girls would want their dick
>>540256567not all of themjust the jeet tier open loop cooling onesliving next to an actual data center means improved local infrastructureliving next to one of these finest cheapest data centers means electricity/water costs and pollution go up in the area
>>540257308I thought americans were pro-free market. I guess not, they only like the free market until the market decides to serve Musk and Allison rather than sell groceries to the peasantry. They only like capitalism until a thirdie comes around and outcompetes them, then they cry crocodile tears thst they are replaced.Cry me a river.
>>540256567Tell me how this is not a bubble. It’s the biggest scam in human history and will be the destruction of the west.
>>540256567can't wait for the bubble to burst so we can have all that fine tech cheap on black markets
>>540257471No one living in the US wants to have their QoL dropped so some retard like you can make deepfake porn or have AI do their job for them. I hope you become destitute.
>>540257663yeah it was data centers that dropped america's quality of living, not stupid zogbots making shekels for goldberg's wars
>>540257774>There can only be one cause! My electric bill going up or my property being taken by eminent domain is one very real way that datacenters directly fuck me. Why should I not be against them?
>>540257927because its not your land and was never your country, if you're a zogbot you're just a fucking moron
>>540256567GOOD GOY!!!
>>540257637It is a bubble and I don't care, because I get to pay 2 dollars a week for premium service bt a company that never even turn out a profit but is valued above a trillion dollars. All they want is my data and my ratings, so they can brag to index funds and scam their way to claim american retirement.It is based. It is like eating out at the pizzeria that you know is owned by the mafia.
>>540256567>WHY DOES /pol/ HATE AI DATA CENTERS?Because /pol/ has eaten up CCP propaganda. The CCP wants to be the leader in AI, not the US, so, they spend a shitload of money shilling against them in the West just like they spend a shitload to shill for Green Energy and environmentalism to push the cost of manufacturing up so that they have a monopoly on cheap manufacturing. Brazil Chang;^)
>>540257648can you be more specific? do you mean to say that ai will never become any more advanced than it already is now in august 5th of 2026?
>>540257927Proof you even pay an electric bill or own property? Hell, proof that you're actually an American and not a chink on a VPN?
it's the free market i don't hate it. that's just a forced libcuck tranny narrative
>>540256787post proof of your electricity rate doubling troon. you libcucks hardly ever if at all can afford your own place and bills to begin with larper
>>540257471Should have known this was a bait thread honestly.
>>540256567I don't hate AI. I think anyone who runs critical infrastructure on someone else's hardware is stupid. >t. still use google docs for shit
>>540256567It’s cool how we’re speedrunning those Star Trek episodes where they discover a civilization of idiots ruled by a computer.
>>540256567There is one thing that every person, both sides of the political spectrum have in common. They want a home and they want to feel safe. Data centers are an enemy force invading their communities. They steal resources and land and pollute the water and air. Nobody wants them around. Not in American soil where land is nearly unaffordable as it is. Data centers drive down property value because they make it unlivable. They make people's lives miserable. They pollute water and waste water. They pollute the air with noise pollution. They drive all living things crazy. People are voting for anyone who is against data centers. That is a fact.
>>540259455>american soil where it's unaffordable>data centers drive down property value
this is why i fucking hate zogbots, theyre stupid fucking retards that think land is supposed to give them money
>>540259585Yes, property value goes down because you can't live there anymore peacefully without noise 24/7 or water table being fucked. A piece of land that you can have no fresh water or is polluted by unnatural noise that is constant, is of no value to anyone be it personal value or monetary. Of course, it's a value to the parasites who own the data center. But they don't live near them.
You should see the hard sell presentations these data center companies give to the small towns they're preying on. They had a closed door meeting with a bunch of council members, mayors and other yokels from surrounding counties at a convention center here earlier this summer. I was there to pick up some stuff my boss left behind from a con that weekend and peeked through one of the door windows while it was going on. The slide with the pitch man's talking points on the screen said something like:>Remember, data centers are overwhelmingly popular with the public!>Opposition is a tiny, but LOUD minority!>Family members and people you once considered close friends may be coerced into adopting hostile attitudes towards you if you bring a data center to your town >You *must* be able to put them aside and finish the task once you are committed to it.It was creepy as hell and felt like some kind of Scientology or Jonestown shit.
>>540259716>>540259827>t.
>>540259827Maybe with the technocrats, but the yokels and city officials don't need to care about what they are for. They only care about the money. It's easy to act against the interest of your friends and family when you can retire with enough money to move somewhere else and start a new life. It's pure greed and they are bribing cities and land owners with unimaginable wealth.
>>540258860I am not baiting. I am mocking you guys a little bit, sure, but I am genuinely concerned about the possibility of losing my cheap AI when so much of my income comes from selling cheap prompt slop to you.>>540258258The USA spends far more in AI than China. It is unreal just how much disclosed capital goes into AI. 800 billion dollars in one fiscal year is insane.
we could make as many as we wanted if people werent fucking retarded and actually started building tons of nuclear starting back in the 80s and 90s like we should have
>>540256567AI is not going away. Even if the AI bubble bursts in the public sector, governments around the world will still use it. Already they are implementing them in their military. >>540259455"The people won't stand for it."AI's well being is a matter of national security now. Politicians who say they are against AI will be in the minority because the benefits to them outweigh your dissenting voice. And if anyone thinks they can sabotage a data center, they will will be prosecuted with the same vigor as if it was an attempt on a military base, including possible terrorism charges.>>540260457It will continue to be funded by tax dollars like some military project.
>>540261244ofc its not fucking going anywhere. every large new asset category/market goes through bubbles. it means nothing, or rather, it means humans are retarded, yet again. buy when its low
