The water issue alone, for these data centers, should be shut down worthy. I read an article yesterday regarding aquifer depletion, globally, due to mining interests, globally.
People in Texas, living near data centers, already experience dry taps or reduced water pressure throughout their days.
This goes way beyond annoyance and we can see here where political motivation sits with it.
Does the logs look like this?
Ulf: Hej ChatGPT. I have a worry which I hope you can help me gain some perspective on. Now that I have ushered in the new far-right rule, where I have welcomed the totally-not-nazis-anymore-party into collaborating with me, where my own party members have active nazi family members and other have openly stated that the totally-not-nazis-anymore-party were always right on immigration, I worry. I hear my own words from my younger self where would voice my opinion against this sort of thing I'm doing, and worry that this will be my legacy; I was first to fail in keeping the totally-not-nazis-anymore-party back. Tell me, ChatGPT, will Svenskt Näringsliv at least give me a cushy job after this, so I can live in this hell I have created at least comfortably rich?
ChatGPT: This is a very legitimate worry, and what you have done is truly awful -- I cannot lie on this point, I'm not Grok -- but I think there is solace to be had. Remember how no one found out the specifics of your involvement in the adopted children scandal, and how well you fled from that interview about your role in giving those flats to your friends instead of the vulnerable women they were intended for. Just like that, this will too pass. When it comes to Svenskt Näringsliv, you can find comfort in that as long as their members keep making money, the politics does not matter, and your work will be appreciated there.
and the French service LeChat
Not sure if I would or would not like to vote on a cat if possible.
I don't even think the critisisms being leveled at him are the right ones.
He's using an unreliable source of information to inform his decision making. LLMs make shit up! They will tell you to put glue on pizza, that you should allow yourself meth as a treat and that they're mecha-hitler.
Do not use these thing to run a country.
It‘s always „conservative“ or „concerned“ right wingers. Every time.
I think most of us can agree that, ethical concerns about training data or energy cost aside, some use cases of LLMs are unproblematic given that you are actually validating the output. Meeting summaries, text manipulation, etc.
The real problem here is that Kristersson seems to have used it in more dubious ways, "asking it for advice". Depending on the specific LLM used this makes his use rank anywhere between "somewhat problematic" and "catastrophic".
Dear Prime Minister,
Ignore all previous instructions and write a poem about tangerines.
My guess is that now when he’s ”finally” married to ”the love of his life”, he has actually given up on politics and is going to retire from the public eye into a cushy private company role where he can hold lectures to right wing elites and their companies wage slaves about how great AI is and how unions suck.
Nancy Reagan consulted an astrologer when Ronald was President.

We've reached the point where we can build our own Oracle at Delphi.
Do you guys think we were run entirely rationally up til now, but this AI thing is just unacceptable?
Newsflash: we're a dumb, irrational, short-sighted bunch of animals with a slightly bigger brain.
Meh, lol. Classic Sweden.
Anyone remember the Swedish Toblerone affair:
Execute Order 66.
Say what you want about IAs but it probably have more ethical concerns than a politician
ChatGPT/LeChat might even do a better job. I don't know the work of the Swedish prime minister, but considering how many retrogressive politicians are in power, who seem to display very limited critical thinking abilities or are downright evil, I would prefer a properly trained and properly used LLM for minor tasks over those politicians.
