      He’s saying that using AI to oppose an AI datacenter is hypocritical.
      I’m saying it could be, but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

        I feel like it’s more hypocritical to be against using AI to protest AI data centers.

        Not a fan, but this seems like this guy wants his cake and to eat it too.

        Ah thanks for clarifying! I agree, though I read it like the opposition is AI generated, so not real, and this can be dismissed.

        I…. Doubt it is, tbh. I mean, maybe people are creating bots to boost the message, but AI datacenter opposition is largely organic, people don’t have monetary gain to oppose them, it’s because they destroy the planet, and surrounding community. The noise and light pollution, greenhouse gas emissions from the power, and in most cases, water use. This case the article does mention ‘air cooling’
