The big problem is honesty.
They do not recognize the impacts that they bring.
Sure, they'll pay for the power that they use. However, who pays for the extra power generation capacity that the public utility will have to build? It will be financed on the back of every citizen.
There's nothing intrinsically wrong with Data Centers, if your eyes are open, you have real data and can protect the public from the impact on power, water and the environmen.
They have the "unmitigated gall" to call these projects green.
Cory Doctorow (npub1fdr…lvhs) says that Data Centers have a useful life of 3 years....another unaccounted factor.

They cure cancer, Erectile Dysfunction, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. They not onlygrow back hair but will grow back limbs.

Anyone who believes in coal should google "Black Tuesday St. Louis"

Black Tuesday in St. Louis refers to the severe air pollution event on November 28, 1939, when thick black smoke from burning soft coal combined with a temperature inversion to darken the sky so profoundly that streetlights were needed during midday. This event, often called "the day the sun didn't shine," reduced visibility to just a few feet, causing traffic paralysis and earning St. Louis a reputation as the nation's dirtiest city.

I can tell you that 20 years later we were still dependent on coal and although the air was a bit better, it was still putrid and made me sick.

Someone once suggested that using electrical tape to wrap extension cords (as if protecting a repair) would keep people from stealing them.
I guess the tape gives the appearance of a repaired or damaged cable.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Yes, and meanwhile Russian drones in Poland.
Of course that's the Ukraine's fault for being so close.

My wife is enamored with bears.
We live in the burbs...and every once in a while one will make it close. When a bear is spotted, my wife wants to move closer to where they are. I'm happy with our white tailed deer, coyotes, possum, raccoons, and skunks. Well maybe not the skunks.
When the subject comes up I always say "Closer Sterl! Closer!" which is what she would say if one came near enough.

Wise people know what to use AI for, how to use it, and especially know what not to use if for.
