Nope, they are going the other way. There's a proposal to dramatically increase residential power rates, in part to fund the 'increased demand due to datacenters". They want residents to pay for stuff instead of making those poor, cash-strapped AI companies have to pay for what they are inflicting...
What you said was dumb because what we need is to reduce emissions further than our weak targets. Also automakers do NOT have any trouble meeting the targets. They could have met those targets years ago, but they would have had to make less exciting vehicles. You're putting your excitement over sustainability. This explains why you support a child molester's tampering with the future.
You cannot make a market freer by removing all regulations. That's a total misunderstanding of how markets work.
"R&D is a sunk cost, especially if it was subsidized. Nobody's going to try to recoup it"

The proper approach would be to allow customers to try the AI tools for free and give honest feedback
(etc.)
That's all true if your goal is to serve customers, as opposed to spying on them.
We would certainly be at a disadvantage if Russia was able to copy rockets that constantly blew up shortly after launch.
Not a weirdo, and it's all about their business interests against the users.
A user increasingly keeps their device over a longer term, 8 year old devices are common. Between their needs not evolving and to the extent they are, they focus on their phones. As a result, Microsoft gets thrown a few dollars by the OEM when the device sold, and that's it.
Meanwhile, if they get someone into a microsoft account, they can upsell them on subscriptions to office and onedrive, and easily make more money per user per year than they made from many of those users over a decade.
The idea that humans in 2100 will politely sit on their hands while the planet burns is genuinely adorable.
It's happening now. There are serious effects now. And there is mostly a lot of thumb-sitting going on.
Humans invent things.
Yes, for profit.
AI is already chewing through research faster than half the committees publishing these forecasts.
AI is chewing through NATURAL RESOURCES faster.
Pretending society wonâ(TM)t respond, wonâ(TM)t adapt and wonâ(TM)t innovate is probably the most unrealistic assumption in the whole exercise.
We don't have to pretend, we can see it happening right now. Or rather, not happening.
For example if you need to get call records months after the fact, with prepaid, tough shit, they don't have them at all.
Nonsense.
Want HD calling? Prepaid got it years after postpaid.
Why would I care? I don't speak a language for which call quality matters.
Paying three times as much or more for someone else to keep records for you is dumb. My phone keeps records for me.
We've seen even Microsoft's own ARM laptops chug trying to emulate x86 software
Using the word "even" here implies that we would expect Microsoft to be competent, but no one with experience with Microsoft expects that.
Itâ(TM)s easier fat.
Copilot in notepad.
You win teh funny. They really have fucked Notepad up bad.
Robots will bring back high paying jobs. With robots, more things can get done cheaper. Projects can be at larger scale and fancier.
Yeah let's just roll over and die?
