Enjoy the bikini season while it lasts. In a few years El Nina will take over and we will all be buying new parkas again.

Datacenters don't use much water. They don't make much noise. They don't use much land. The only thing they do is use a lot of is power - but they actually build MORE power than they need and return power to the grid.

People need to give up their home computers and phones and access to the internet if they hate datacenters so much.

There is no problem with quadrupling datacenters, like at all, not even a little bit. The ground has far more resources than we could ever use and randomly deciding now is the time to stop growth for x reason or y reason is completely performative. You could have said the same thing when datacenters were at 1/4th the amount they are now. The grid is already weak and creating more demand for power will actually strengthen the grid not weaken it. If you have ever taken a flight across the country in a window seat you can see that 99% of the time is spent flying over empty ground. There is absolutely nothing that should limit datacenter construction. Maybe you don't want one right next to your house, that's fine. But stopping them state wide or country wide is absolutely ridiculous. It will be like another nuclear power protest. Nuclear power is extremely clean and would have helped us, but for some reason people had no idea the 'smoke stacks' actually only emitted water vapor.

Electronics have in fact gone down in cost significantly, the only thing keeping prices higher is because a higher quality is being offered. Instead of a 1080p TV now for the same price you get a 4K TV for example. Your computer chip is 100x as powerful as it was 20 years ago and costs the same.

Even when the Dow is at 60000, liberals will still complain that the economy is in the toilet

Why? You must be aware that US and Russia have been cooperating in space since the 1970s?
And today the US and China are far more inter-woven than US - Soviets in the cold war days.

Lets be honest, the only reason US politicians care enough about the moon is that their rival does. Its not a bad thing, a little competition. Maybe the commies will learn from that :-)

Data centers have existed for the last 30 years for running the internet and complaining now about new datacenters is 100% performative.

That is not how economics works. AI only makes money if it provides utility and makes people more productive. If a person or company can produce 100 of something in an hour instead of 1 of something in an hour with AI, that means everyone is richer because that thing costs 100 times less. As with all technological advances, the people of today have better amenities, access to information, and individual power than kings did 200 years ago. AI productivity will be no different.

Yes, some companies will make money but that's only because AI gives so much power to individuals that people will gladly pay for the utility of it. AI is the ultimate equalizer because individuals will be able execute on ideas without needing a big company to compete.

Well, that suggests you are at least as much in a bubble as he is.
Western liberalism is a bubble in itself, leaning far to the supremacy of the individual over the group, compared to other cultures.
And partisan "liberalism" in the US is a smaller bubble still. The US conservatives, for all their guns, god and flag waving, at least manage to understand the left's values better than you do theirs. You folks have to get over such bitter tribalism, or the country is screwed.
