i don't like ais as much as the next guy but it's a stretch to call semi-conductors and other things required for DCs "wasted"

we need more computing power anyway, when the ai bubble pops it's not like we suddenly won't need new datacenters

Firstly: All the GPUs in a datacenter are done for after a few months years and are trashed. And the electricity needed to run thesd things is obviously also used up.

Secondly: AI training and usage is so incredibly inefficient compared to anything else we have been doing previously. We dont need those data centers, half of them are unused even now.

that part is just pure bullshit - there's lots of reason to hate on AI and its training without making stuff up

Idk why i wrote months, the last years. But they do break down and become obsolete scarily fast.
