Aren't the Chinese pushing for AI too? That comment makes no sense

It was a theoretical thing. Government is supposed to work for the people, not just corporations. Obviously the government in the US is not doing a good job at that.

We really need to focus on more offshore wind for this reason.

So they build them cheaply and doing everything in their power to avoid regulations. We really need the government to come in and shut these down given all the harm they cause to their local environment.

It's stupid how much they are pouring into hardware that might be vastly obsolete. By the time AI becomes truly intelligent, there may be specialized chips that are efficient at running models that blow GPUs out of the water.

Look at how it happened to bitcoin mining. Nobody serious is using a GPU to mine when ASIC is available.

However, I don't see all this hardware hitting the second hand market once a better solution is found. I'm sure they will keep trying to make compute hard to get for the average person so they can rent out their servers for a crazy price.
