This guys in for a rude awakening soon.
I work on the uninterruptible power supplies in many of these monstrosities. I heard from someone who works in one of them while I was on a job saying that they literally pay themselves off in 7 months. That's how much money is flying around in this space, and all that money is just more explosive power for the bomb its going to be at the heart of our economy.
Our team is being run ragged out here in the PNW because of the absolute mass of Data Centers being built on cheap land in eastern WA.
Hope you have stocks then. Will go up a lot.
I got a feeling stocks aren't going too matter much here soon.
What scenario are you thinking of?
Complete collapse of the financial system brought about by a debt fueled meltdown
I used to think so too, but ive seen it increase for 30 years now and the fed just prints more money.
Also there are people who thinks it's fine:
I can't comment on this info myself, it's not my area.
Its true that most people don't know how the debt works, but that is by design.
We have 39 trillion in debt, but what did we use it for? Do we have nicer roads, better schools, or more hospitals? No.
A huge part of the debt came from the bad bets of companies being offloaded onto the government via the treasury. People don't understand just how cheap it was (we've just about hit the point where inflation is unavoidable) for the Epstein class to borrow government money.
That borrowing was against our future and we won't have the growth or infrastructure to justify that debt load. My reasoning is that the bow will break somewhere, and it will bring everything else down with it because the system isn't sustainable as it exists today.
What, can't the AI robots do it? I'm ready for my Jetsons lifestyle where I do 2 hours worth of work a month and have a robot maid.
What's all this plumbing that suddenly need to doing?
That's what they said about software developers and coders.
Let me guess: the milllions of electricians are tasked with building the AI data centres, while the plumbers build the plumbing needed to flush all those tons of generated slop down the drain?
No, plumbers needed to help divert the worlds drinking water to cool servers.
Shut up you mega corp pos ceo.
You are not in charge. Go back to making graphics cards and leave politics to politicians.
by extensions he also supports AI being used to spread propaganda through bots, and supporitng thiels own palintir systems.
