Is it really this hard to just say “no” to Microslop? You’re realising that it’ll hurt the country and its population (as well as the environment and by extension literally every single person on earth), why the fuck would you put you own personal wealth first?
I don’t get that mindset.
This is why you’re not a billionaire. It takes a special kind of cutthroat
The word you’re looking for is sociapth. You need to be a sociopath to become a billionaire
A sacrifice the weak should be thankful to make, for Capitalism. /s
For you, the day microslop graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for microslop, it was Tuesday.
“Bill Gates is such a philanthropist, he’s a ‘good’ billionaire.”
The fuck he is. Also, if you think Bill has nothing to do with the direction of Microslop because he stepped down from the board a few years ago, think again.
“Gates’ advice is reportedly treated as gospel, and he also played a crucial role in fostering Microsoft and OpenAI’s partnership, and consequently, the success witnessed in the category.”
He also appears to represent Microslop at lots of official functions, like when the techbro oligarchs kissed Trumps ass at a dinner recently.
Makes sense, he and Orange Chicken are both Epstein pals.
Bill could drop dead tomorrow and nothing would change. corporate governance involves a lot more than one person.
Come on now, the people want simple answers to complex problems and blaming a single person serves this purpose.
This is why corpos prefer dictators.
And if you negotiate well, Microsoft will even let you choose which half of the country?
Do it like Musk and build your own generators, that harm locals. Problem solved.
Where are all the fucking brain trusts that spent the last year telling me AI data centers aren’t actually that bad and it’s just like watching YouTube?
Original reporting by Bloomberg is here or here for an archive.is version.
Sounds like the talks are stalled about revenue guarantees from the Kenyan government, if demand for the data center’s capacity never shows up. The power infrastructure isn’t really an issue yet, since the first phase is going to be 100MW and there are plans to build geothermal plants sufficient to cover several multiples of the country’s current power usage, including whatever demand comes from this data center.
And they will probably do it too.
Half the country? In that case, wouldn’t it make more sense to build two data centers?
Frontier tech companies build algorithmic science experiments, release them to the public as real products that replace applications and people, which we find are not actually applications or effective trustworthy workers, then ask customers and consumers to build the applications tech firms used to create and sell, and now they want us to foot the bill on the infrastructure to let us use the dumb experiment. Tens of thousands of workers that used to transition tech R&D into real products are laid off. And politicians are bribed with billions of dollars to create or block legislation that would make tech firms responsible for and take the burden on of actually delivering a real solution to meet their hype. So what happens when people can’t make a living and recycle money back into a consumer oriented economy? A Great Depression. I guess the tech bros create their new society on the moon and Mars with the money they raided from the government coffers. What a $&!7 show.
Spend the offline time learning to make home made bombs and molotov’s and buying weapons, the data center will be built, it’s about if it’ll stay up or not
