About this listen

In this episode we are discussing data center. aka: cloud storage and now AI training centers. While we are no experts on the matter, we present here a primer of some facts and a whole lot of thoughts on the realities of these centers. I think most humans are out living their lives, realizing and talking about the effects of AI and data collection yet these data centers are rather stealthy in their size, scope and how they are buying up the land to house them. This is a good conversation starter about something that is moving into so many communities and begs the question how sustainable are they actually? How will these communities be affected? How many jobs will they actual bring? The price, of as Sam Altman puts it in, "the demand we have for speed" is getting really expensive; in all ways.
