They bring in lots of revenue, and the climate change is not an issue if we build more solar with energy storage. Texas is showing everyone it can be done.
Data centers need to be close to cities to have low latency to provide services. Even things like translation needs AI and if it's immediate it makes conversations between people who speak different languages faster. I talk to a guy who only knows Spanish and he uses AI to translate sometimes when his daughter is not available.
Let's not pretend the old way of translation with dictionary lookups and stuff actually worked
Actually fuck revenue tho.
You want cities to be broke?
