    I’m sure the construction is ethically being built in regards to workers rights and treatment

  2. We go to war and end up have to thank Iran for job creation when companies have to hire people again.

  3. Oh no. *rolling out a red carpet* Please don’t. *popping Champaign.* I would just hate that.

    Iran bursting the AI bubble would be so random and funny. But legit, it’s hard to see how that wouldn’t be a crisis for OpenAI that seriously derails them.

    A quick Google search for “how much did OpenAI donate to Donald Trump” is enlightening

    As an American, I love nothing more than our precious data centers! Please Iran, don’t blow them up! Also don’t blow up any Kushner properties or anything Tesla, or Amazon!

    May I recommend a few other AI data centers as well to whetten your appetite?

  9. They may be full of it but they’re sure coming across as a Robin Hood type figure here. They know how to win propaganda

    Iran single-handedly stopping skynet rising definitely not in my 2026 bingo list.
