The only possible customer for committed datacenter projects is the US government. the bailout is just buying all the datacenter time... because if not, China wins. Amazon, despite no congressional appropriations yet, has announced $50B datacenter to supply government customers.

    China wins what? Except if they already won by far, they have similar AI, with similarly high costs and similarly low value, similarly not worth it. Either they also invest big and will crash just as hard, or they don't and they're just enjoying the show of US suiciding its economy through AI.

    If you ever stream cable news in the background during business hours. experts will come on to tell you that if the US doesn't bankrupt itself, then Russia or China wins. The only remaining hope for US economy seems to be to beat China at AI, because it can't beat it at anything else. So, all the money for military, and AI to help military make Skynet, which will mostly be used to ensure establishment can control/kill Americans who don't support Skynet for Israel supremacist rule over the US, is simply a continuation of the tautology of "all US money for militarist US establishment control over all of you", but with more efficient AI.
