   I just realized another way that #AI is already f*cking with us. I administer a .org website thru WIX, and they are raising their prices at the same time as offering a bunch of AI tools. Even if I don’t want to use these tools, we still have to pay for it. This feels less like a gold rush than force-feeding a goose prior to liver extraction.
   My financial advisor is recommending a GE spinoff that makes gas turbines. Sounds innocent enough until you find out that their biggest customer is, you guessed it, AI data centers.

     Back a ways I complained that we weren’t actually replacing fossil fuels with solar and wind, but just adding those sources into an ever expanding CORPORATE energy budget. These #DataCenters make clear that corporate america doesn’t understand or care about the lethality of #climatechange . And neither does the #gop .
