    AI is another dot com style bubble. How about we all just be quiet about that so billionaires blow a lot of hype driven investment dollars on green energy?

    Once the bubble bursts there will be a surplus of cheap green energy we can use for powering homes and EVs and such. Obviously there’s better ways to do this than scamming billionaires into a hype train, but global warming is a problem now and we can’t wait for our society to change to be able to address the problem in a rational way.

    So… sure… AI is the future! We need to build a lot of wind and solar power so we can have AI! We don’t need this for woke global warming reasons, no no no. We need this for $$$$$$AAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ reasons! Increase shareholder value by making wind turbine and solar panels, you must do this because it’s illegal not to maximize shareholder value!!! Build wind and solar so you can someday fire all of your employees! For the shareholders!
