Spending trillions to build out AI data centers proves that the American ruling class had the resources and ability to convert the grid to renewables and maybe save the planet but instead deliberately chose to cook us all and die for no reason but to produce demonic digital slop.
Here's my full interview with CNBC, covering my bear case against generative AI, OpenAI's questionable finances, AI's lack of ROI, and how all of this is a symptom of the tech industry running out of hypergrowth ideas.
It's great to see the mainstream media discussing this.
@ZaidJilani no one seems to care that they are being monitored 24/7 by the phone they carry, the flock cameras in their city, and the NSA satellites overhead. security concerns are a red herring cause Detroit cant compete.
This SCOTUS rulings so far
•Universities using race criteria to counter historical racism in admissions is unconstitutional, BUT
•ICE fascists using race criteria to target people of color is constitutional, BUT
•State legislatures using race criteria to counter historical voter suppression is unconstitutional, BUT
•Trump using race criteria to enact travel bans is constitutional
In short—race criteria that centers white people is constitutional, but race criteria otherwise is unconstitutional😐
An affordable city is a sustainable city. I'm proud to support NYCHA’s ambitious new Sustainability Agenda, which includes heat pumps, electric vehicle charging stations, induction stoves, and other energy-efficiency upgrades for NYCHA residents over the next five years.
We look forward to working with NYCHA to advance this work and lay the foundation for a more affordable future.
U.S. Automakers: “Americans don’t want inexpensive EVs. We’re cutting our losses and stopping all plans for future EV development.”
Also U.S. Automakers: “If we allow China to sell inexpensive EVs here, we’ll go out of business because Americans will buy those instead!”
In the best case scenario, Trump struck a deal to reopen a Strait that was open before the pointless war he started, with the IRGC demonstrating its control over the Strait and potentially extracting fees plus sanctions relief. Thousands of innocents - including hundreds of children - dead in Lebanon and Iran for no reason. U.S. troops killed and wounded. U.S. embassies and bases in the Middle East badly damaged. U.S. standing in the world obliterated. U.S. munitions badly depleted. Hundreds of billions spent. Prices up everywhere. More global economic fallout to come. Putin strengthened and enriched. Just a catastrophic situation even in the best of circumstances. A profoundly shameful episode in American history no matter what happens next.
