It's okay to just not want or like AI data centers. People don't have to hold a watertight argument against them to oppose them.

And with how secretive a lot of those behind these constructions have been, I think everyone is within their right to crank their cynicism towards data centers to the max.

Sure there are a lot of things I just don't like, but the government really does need to have a real reason to regulate things.

		The government is supposed to represent the people, so if enough people don’t like it, then that’s a real reason.

		The reason is that a majority of the voters wanted to regulate it.

What a surprise people don’t want massive structures used for shady purposes built by sociopaths, which may or may not use massive amount of power and resources, which may or may not be used to displace the entirety of the labor work force, or destroy what’s left of society to develop better algorithms. To also be built literally in unfathomablr quantities, in almost ever decent piece of land, using unfathomable amounts of money.

Seriously what’s peoples problem?

This is one of those situations where HN is too smart and thinks logic is the same as reality. Life exists outside of computers
