It’s time for everyone to realize that the fight against data centers has nothing to do with data centers.
They have become a proxy for the hate towards AI and the concentration and accumulation of wealth it’s creating.
Until those running the big LLMs understand this and start a community tour, not to explain the benefits of AI, it’s too late for that, but to help towns and cities that may be impacted by job losses (and I’m a believer their will be a net gains in a few years), this battle is only going to get more intense and let me tell you now , no matter how much money you pay to buy politicians and races, you will lose.
One thing I have learned is being hated is not good for business.
How can they help ? They will tell you. You will need to do what they ask. Billions of dollars is a lot of money across towns and city programs. Across the major LLMs, it’s a cost of doing business.
At the same time, I would go to LA and NYC and ask the arts and creative unions what kind of programs would help and protect their artists. DO NOT GO TO THE MUSIC OR FILM COMPANIES. that will make it worse.
Don’t try to pay famous people to endorse what you are doing. That’s dumb.
Talk to artists and ask them what you can do to provide financial and creative support. Every creative I know is TERRIFIED about what AI will do to their profession. You must meet them face to face and basically do what they say.
The big LLMs have lost the PR battle. Why ? Because they all suck at putting people first. They have an SV attitude that makes them all think they are John Galt saving the
world
Given the number of data centers and power that is needed, today and going forward , If you don’t kiss the asses of the people that go to work every day, and are just trying to pay their bills, you will fall far far short of the capacity you need to make your business work.
Is it not just simply that GRPO signals are less effective in longer horizon, more complex tasks? the sampling variance on long rollouts cannot be easy to deal with
Me when I don't achieve my goals:
I'm a failure and an embarrassment to my friends and family, and I don't deserve happiness.
Me when I achieve my goals:
Ok.
Today we're releasing ZAYA1-8B, a reasoning MoE trained on @AMD and optimized for intelligence density.
With <1B active params, it outperforms open-weight models many times its size on math and reasoning, closing in on DeepSeek-V3.2 and GPT-5-High with test-time compute. 🧵
@dbull888 My favorite is 69420.T. They make cannabis rolling papers that now have dual use as chip substrates for NLinE ACP+ 47v waves for DRAM/DDAMNAM. It’s more of a 2028 story but 140% of capacity is contracted by the hyperscalers thru 2030.
