A broken clock is right twice a day.

A website advertising the rallies lists what it sees as the dangers of data centers: secrecy, water use, air pollution, national security, energy, land use and noise.

This sounds great!

If you go to their website and see some more valid concerns mixed with these valid ones. Noise pollution. Children being driven to suicide. But wait, there's some weird stuff.

if we lose control of superintelligent AI…
[ellipsis theirs]

And then you look at their call to action, and it features nothing about water, air, noise, energy, land pollution, child abuse, suicide. The only part left is the wacky stuff, warning AI will become super powerful and begging for strict regulation and testing that would squeeze out anybody but the biggest AI companies.

This project is a fucking bait and switch.

maybe start protesting the cheeto in the white house shitposting AI images all the damn time.

fukken lol

lmao even

Obligatory “nobody tell them” comment

Cool. They're still raping kids though.

Which nation?

How shocking that this suddenly coincides with every AI model now charging even for “free” use
