Great. There are like, a million reasons to want to stop data center contruction.
The environment, affordable housing, job loss, or even just slowing down these tech bros who are building something that might, you know, cause human extinction.
Just because you *can* doesn’t mean you *should.*

China is very close to being able to manufacture their own chips and grow their compute exponentially, if Americans want to unilaterally slow down, I’m pretty sure that Beijing will appreciate the gesture

I mean, he’s got a point, they’re massive buildings that consume immense resources (increasing the price of power for everyone) while employing almost no one. Actually it’s even worst, their goal is to eliminate actual jobs.
The only thing they benefit are the stock prices of their parent companies. IF they manage to be profitable one day.

Hate to say this but as long as there is another imperialist nation in the world that the US needs to compete with at the technological level, this is a pretty dumb take.
