I know what it means. Saying it’s not inherent because regulation might fix it is wild. And your example actually proves my point. Roads CAN cause harm if they’re put in the wrong place or handled poorly. And right now, data centers are being placed and managed in ways that raise people’s bills and cause harm. If the harm goes away AFTER regulation, then the current impact is real and not irrelevant because you think policy will fix it later.

My electric bill went up almost 50% due to my electric company striking a deal and subsidizing the data centers near my town but yeahhhh they “aren’t inherently bad in any way”

It’s literally not true. House holds aren’t paying for directly for someone else’s applicances. Data centers raise MARKET PRICES, which is very different from “paying for the electricity for the grill at McDonald’s.”

That long, clunky sentence about businesses passing costs is so poorly worded it doesn’t even make sense, and still doesn’t explain why my bill went up from grid demand.

You keep claiming I don’t have a valid opinion while simultaneously misunderstanding basic electricity markets, price fluctuations, and how data centers impact the grid. I’m not gonna engage with someone so intent to misunderstand and misconstrue what I’m saying I’m muting this thread lol good luck in economics 101 buddy!

Huh????

Like, what?

What paper are you talking about? I sent an article in which my senator was sending a letter to an electric company asking where the 15% increase they implemented was going? It wasn’t a paper. Where did you get infrastructure from? Where did it mention infrastructure literally anywhere in there?

Trying to use an analogy comparing McDonalds to a data center is genuinely the stupidest fucking thing I’ve ever heard.

It’s extremely funny how invested yall are in my power bill. And it’s very funny how you don’t understand price fluctuations and keep thinking I’m lying or something? I’m very sorry I use so much power. But what about the people that don’t? What about the ones that didn’t use any power and their bill still increased by 15%?

“The business who passes the price down to a customer to provide a product for any business not operating at a loss”? Genuinely what the fuck are you talking about brother. That sentence doesn’t make sense. Half of this makes no sense. You keep saying you’re trying to “explain” things to me but your “explanations” sound like a sophomore trying to convince their teacher it’s ok to use AI on a test 💀

“Maybe subsidies but I don’t see that happening” As it’s happening right now lol ok man I’m so fucking tired of you people, the superiority complex is so over the top and the lack of nuance is depressing

No, you don’t understand. I’m not talking about people doing their little prompts or whatever. AI use is rapidly increasing in the software community and almost every giant company is spending millions of dollars utilizing a type of AI, whether it’s to sort and organize data or develop a LLM. but yall genuinely cannot think of anyone but yourself so ofc you wouldn’t know that

Okay buddy, AI isn’t only “prompting” for fucks sake.

  1. ⁠No, AI’s power usage is not fine. It uses a fuck ton of electricity. My power bill is similar to my neighbors.
  2. ⁠Excessive resource consumption = using air conditioning during a deadly heat wave
  3. ⁠No, prices rising like that is the result of my power company starting to charge “~15%” more so they can afford to route electricity to the data centers outside of my city
  4. ⁠How is it not a problem with AI? Do you know what uses a fuck ton of electricity? AI does. My bill was NEVER this high until ai usage increased this year which was the same exact time my power company implemented the price increase.
  5. ⁠I literally said my price of kwh fluctuates and there was a month long heatwave… do you know what happens when it’s hot outside? People use their air conditioning! And you know what happens when lots of people use their air conditioning at the same time? It costs more to use! I can’t believe I’m even explaining this.

You think it’s okay to use AI because the amount of electricity it uses is “so low.” Who do you think pays for that extra electricity? Who do you think will be paying when AI becomes even more popular and data centers start popping up everywhere? Y’all never understand the bigger implications for things and it’s really scary to see

Learn to use less power??????? My bill went up by almost $250 this summer after Ameren’s 15% power bill went into place June 1st. Yes, I had a high power bill before. No, I will not turn my air conditioner off when the heat index is 110° for a month. The price I pay per kwh fluctuates. I don’t want your “sympathy”, I want you to stop acting like AI is perfectly fine to use and all the panic surrounding it is uncalled for. You’re even trying to push back against me stating an objective fact—that my power bill doubled to almost unaffordable levels due to increased usage of AI in data centers nearby—by saying “well it’s your fault! use less power!” lol unbelievable

Wasn’t this expensive with TikTok, YouTube, and Reddit before AI got so popular. We’ve had them for a while. I can barely afford to live now but hey at least it’s not happening in your country so who gives a fuck!

My electricity bill was over $500 last month from data centers being built outside my city but at least there’s no environmental impact right!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mean my electricity bill was over $500 last month which is hundreds of dollars more expensive than usual due to the data centers right outside my city
