Sounds like citizens of malta can now train chatgpt for free now
Naw, they won’t be satisfied until you pay to train their AI.

I don’t hear much about Malta, the last thing that sticks out in my mind was the Journalist investigating the Panama Papers and local ties that got car bombed.
I’m getting the impression that rich criminal neo-liberals have a lot of sway there.
So stupid
Citizens and residents registered with Malta’s online identity system can apply to get access to ChatGPT Plus
What’s the benefit because that just sounds like a shit sandwich
It’s weird that something so revolutionary has to be shoved into people’s faces to be successful.
Let’s offload a whole country’s cognitive load and see what happens! Why not?
isn’t Malta filled and powered by some of the worlds richest and most corrupt men?
I’ve only ever met one person from Malta, 20+ years ago at a strip club in Portland. He had a lot of money to throw around, kept buying everyone drinks, then invited some of us and some strippers back to his hotel. We drank some more, did some coke. The next morning I stumbled out of the wreckage to head back to my hotel and found him standing in the middle of a skywalk, wearing just chonies and a bedsheet bandana, talking with his butt like Ace Ventura, flinging sausages he’d swiped from the breakfast lounge, declaring “the great ass gives you sausage!” 🤷♂️
It’s also associated with crusaders- it was one of the last strongholds of the Knights Hospitaliers after they looted everything. Which might’s be part of why
It’s also got a tax system that treats private jets favourably IIRC. Or maybe it was yachts.
Most watercraft that are dodging shit are usually registered in Seychelles. I’m sure some are also registered in Malta too, but the VAST majority are Seychelles.
why?
And what is their power grid running on goat turds? Because I’m pretty sure there is an energy crisis in that part of the world.

ChatGPT would most likely connect to US servers.
The article doesn’t say anything about them running an AI data center. No one is making that claim.
Okay then, we’re is the data center servicing them or internet servers for Malta?
Apparently Malta already has the Internet. Surprising, I know.
Buttfuck Alabama.
As far as I’m aware there aren’t any AI data centres in Europe, mainly because of the overwhelming opposition to them, and most european countries have significantly more stringent planning (zoning) laws when compared to America.
Not to mention tougher regulations concerning noise pollution and actual pollution.
Yeah we don’t even have internet in Europe and only recently started importing electricity from the great US, leader of the technological world.
In all seriousness, obviously Europe is filled with data centres too. This site lists ~4000 data centers in the US and ~3000 in Europe.

How many of those are AI data centers though? Those consume an order of magnitude more power.
You dont need an AI-specific datacenter to have a datacenter serving AI.
The issue being discussed was Malta running out of energy because of AI data centers. It will not. Nor will we in the rest of Europe. Regular data centers aren’t filled to the brim with power hungry GPU servers. They’re also not very good for running AI workloads.
Missing the point. This has only become an issue since specific AI data centres have become a thing. My point still stands, I dont believe there are any specific AI centres in Europe which use a hell of a lot more energy, generate more noise and more pollution
“Offers”, hmm? Gotta wonder what the elected officials backing this were offered. 🤮
PISS country I guess
