    Anti-AI is also not anti-tech. It’s anti-surfdom. This issue wouldn’t be nearly as politicised if people didn’t have to rent it from those massive companies.

    Edit: meant serfdom, but the misspell is funny. I guess riding waves and touching grass aren’t so different after all.

    Apparently 38 of 44 measures restricting data centers passed because voters were thinking about Trump, not the enormous data centers in their towns. Amazing how an industry selling pattern recognition suddenly becomes so bad at recognizing one when it’s inconvenient.
