Nollag shona daoibh…Merry Christmas to you both and indeed to all Gizars. May your Christmas and New year be safe, happy and healthy.
Just goes to show that that AI/Datacentres are in fact loss leaders, that motive and their purpose is not actually to make profit in themselves.
Given both the season and the day that’s in it.

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!
AI is Orwellian shorthand for…
CLOSED GOVERNANCE !
and
Privatized PROFIT$ !
Are they cashing in; while the getting is good?
Are ALL AI alike?
Are the Chinese using AI differently?
Better?
Much Worse?
Are AI wars eating away the product?
The OUROBOROS of “our” time?
Eternal PUMP & DUMPS?
FOGHORN Leghorn…
Puts it succinctly,
“I say! I SAY!
IT just don’t ADD UP!!!”
Obsolete on the damn drawing boards!
AND, that’s by the time you’ve designed it?
If it’s obsolete, before you build it?!
Why in HELL would you build it?
Fool me once; and done?
Like Amazon, Uber, Google, all monopolies; that ONLY Operate at scale?
Loosing money till…?
THEY"RE the ONLY game in town?
Then it’s $CREW every DAMN One of U$!!
ALL the Live-Long DAY!!!
Are “They” going for… ?
The once and done?
Just let them eat their own…?
Then an elitist reBOOT; on-the-face, of whose left?

… you nailed it … sounds like the Jeff Bezos formula for success … lose tons of money until you make a buck. If only the rest of us could do that.
