pumping out all the water
lmao, what? Water is like the ultimate renewable resource.
It’s crazy to me that AI companies are spinning up their own nuclear power plants to train AI, green energy is flourishing better than any projection a decade ago said it would, and AI critics are now upset that datacenters use evaporative cooling…

Yeah, but that's just because "nobody wants to work"
I can tell them for free: its 42.
Oh dear …
You have to know what the question is first
For that, we’ll need a super-AI! If only some
naive rubeheroic billionaire would be brave enough to fund it!/s
They’re more than happy to create all this power to make predictive text machines, but not for actual people.

How’s that WeWork investment going?
I think these assholes should be held to their claims. In this case that means the money comes directly out of his pocket.
