AI is starting to show that it isn't worth the investment and they are STILL building more?!? WTF is going on?

    Because I do not think AI is the actual end goal. I think the actual end goal is cloud computing. They want everyone to use thin clients and connect to their data center instead of using a pc at home.

    Don’t forget the surveillance state! The global buildout for the NWO one government surveillance state will be paid with your pension and retirement savings.

    Nothing to do with a so called new world orde just the same people as before. It is just the government and industrialist that want more power. We are just living though the beginings of a cyberpunk setting.

    Yeah but without the cool tech or space exploration. We just get the shitty parts.

    Well there is cool tech for the ultra rich (some examples, robotic prostetics, private space companies, Gabe's private lab yachts, brain interface, private exploration of the Marianna trench).

    We definetly get the sloppy seconds, if that.

    I think the real goal is the billionaires uploading their minds to achieve immortality. Definitely impossible, but that's what I think.

    That was my theory to why Zuck was so interested in his Metaverse. Every billionaire is planning some sort of post-life or extending their lives one way or another. The same way kings and emperors of history have.

    There are multiple goals in mind such as surveillance, pumping the stock market, taking control out of people's hands, excuses to do things like lay people off, etc. In this case or in general for local governments, it's a matter of a select number of people getting a lot of money in their pockets and thus pushing for these data centers to happen.
