The US government is actively funding this with your taxes FYI This March OpenAI has gotten another 122 Billion USD in funding and had received over 40 billion the other year, while reporting a net income of -9 billion dollars. The end goal is not a product/service that will better the lives of consumers, this government is vehemently anti consumer, they want to price you out of being able to OWN any compute power while being forced to rent it from the tech oligarchs, who will have a monopoly on compute power.
This is techno feudalism and they are making you pay for it.
But does anyone care? It feels like majority is not only complacent, but actually happy for that.
None of this is info is actually reaching the general population at large, because the people implementing this are the same ones that control all the media and are pumping out mountains of made up identity politics conflict to keep people distracted or are flooding places like reddit with bots to do the same thing. If every american really understood what was going on right now the country would grind to a stop with a quickness.
Not sure it’s a majority, but agree there is a huge contingent of people who seem to think this direction is good. Or maybe it just feels huge because, you know, bots
They will also make you pay for the electricity and water these data centers are taking fromnyour home and they will spit in your face if you even complain about the ecological disaster, noise and excess heat they produce. Whst a time to be alive.
Funny how EVs were going crash the electrical grid but but datacentres are ok. What happens if we plug in all the datacentres at the same time?
