The Money Has Nowhere Else to Go
The AI-driven data center boom, fueled by corporate lobbying and excess capital from wealthy elites, is a speculative bubble destined to burst, leaving taxpayers with stranded assets and inflated utility bills. While environmental concerns are valid, the core issue is systemic financial mis-allocation. Where profits prioritize investors over public welfare, and political influence distorts policy. Decentralized, local AI use offers an alternative, but the system is engineered to extract rents, not serve common needs.
For all the....interesting to some.....angles that are posted, this one IS interesting. Money with no place to go, because folks sure don't want to improve the lives of others, but just corner a market somewhere in something new and squeeze the chattel for all they are worth! Cheap suibscriptions to AI...we promise! You can borrow at 10% to use it if you don't have the cash today!
The democans will love it as much as the republicrats! Even Marx would love it! AI for the people! As long as the Dear Leader controls who gets it, or doesn't, or how much it costs who!
Power to the people! <just no commies involved!>
