00:33:01.280
all right so that's kind of the intro to that one we're going to look at some more clips from this
00:33:06.580
one um and it's it's quite interesting because there's a couple of points here where sam
00:33:13.980
altman talks about this and you know how much they're that this seems to be just out of the
00:33:20.600
goodness of their heart right they want to take part of this massive revolution it's going to fix
00:33:24.240
everything it's going to solve all the diseases it's going to you know cure everything it's going
00:33:29.000
to be it's this miracle technology i guess in a way it's like kind of the way they showed like atomic
00:33:35.720
energy right in in the 50s you'll have nuclear powered cars and you know flying nuclear power
00:33:42.200
cars and stuff like that however i do think that this is different i think they are also
00:33:46.340
it's true that it's inflated and and it's a bubble but part of that is create the hype that's necessary
00:33:53.100
so you can make these massive investments because once you have the infrastructure in place then you
00:33:58.520
do have that power right you kind of magically have created it out of nothing just hype it up
00:34:02.840
borrow a bunch of money or you know uh raise the funds necessary in order to to get it done and so
00:34:11.700
they get they get physical changes in reality with it but it's mostly kind of up here in agreeance with
00:34:17.360
people who are able to fund it or those who think that this is a good idea and they continue to use it
00:34:21.420
or something like that but they don't but but they do not cover as you said in any of these what the
00:34:27.780
real concerns with what artificial intelligence is right so it's almost like a um i'm not saying
00:34:33.860
maybe that they fully are able to wrap their heads around this right partially what happens if you don't
00:34:39.240
have a somewhat conspiratorial mind and always assume that these people are good nature good good
00:34:43.840
natured and and they they're truly looking out for us or something but you kind of miss that piece of it
00:34:48.480
then right so instead they focus on water and energy and what's happening to farmland and some
00:34:53.060
of the health effects and again those are those are bad enough right kind of thing they're kind of
00:34:57.740
like farms are just going poof poof away same thing with housing developments right where's the food's
00:35:04.240
going to be where where's the food going to be produced well then you get word vertical farming
00:35:08.500
robotic farming hydroponics inside of um you know containers basically right that's what they're talking
00:35:15.020
about uh okay so let's get forward here a little bit she visits the the stargate site here i think
00:35:21.320
they're talking i don't think i have that clip and they talk about why did you name it stargate
00:35:24.380
because there's all these references all the time they have like this project was called project
00:35:29.940
ludicrous which i think and then they played a clip from um the space balls movie and of course you
00:35:35.340
had operation warp speed warp speed from star trek there's all these sci-fi they love to play on that
00:35:40.740
all the time they claim that the first design for one of the ideas kind of made it made it look like
00:35:45.500
the stargate in the in the movie in the series but anyway let's uh let's play the next part here
00:35:51.100
ludicrous rush well because stargate is part of a much larger ai race
00:35:56.180
companies like microsoft meta google amazon and xai are all building ai data centers of their own
00:36:05.660
at sites across the u.s and beyond each company wants to have the most capable ai being used by
00:36:12.440
the most people and they've committed tens of billions of dollars to make it happen
00:36:16.360
there's no reason we won't scale up our computing 100 000 times in a few years
00:36:20.880
i'm good for my 80 billion i'm going to spend 80 billion dollars building out azure the downside of
00:36:26.900
being behind is that you're out of position for like the most important technology for the next 10 to 15
00:36:31.380
years but beyond just making better ai many tech leaders want to be the first to create a gi
00:36:38.040
artificial general intelligence a super smart agent that can think and learn just like a human
00:36:43.600
if not better large language models think about that though too
00:36:51.940
you look i know the scalability of this and if they get their way
00:36:57.140
like how powerful that's going to be especially as people are getting dumber and partially they're
00:37:01.620
getting dumber because they're using more technology
00:37:03.440
and the more technology you use your brain atrophies and of course then your need for ai increases
00:37:07.940
so as ours go down that must go up for i guess civilization as it as
00:37:18.840
but you're telling me agi then it's like might be able to be as smart as a human
00:37:24.300
maybe better you know kind of thing so you're investing hundreds of billions of dollars
00:37:29.560
in the totality if you take all these companies and all these people involved
00:37:32.860
to basically what just get a a human brain but in a computer
00:37:38.400
there's more to it than that i mean there is more that's
00:37:42.160
but you see how ridiculous that excuse sounds from the point of view of those who make the video
00:37:46.880
like okay can't you okay can't you just use a human brain then or what anyway
00:37:51.320
it's like chachi anyway thank you for the uh subs over on uh rambler uh
00:37:56.060
renounceate gifted uh one and then five i believe earlier thank you for that i appreciate that
00:38:01.120
actually one from renounceate and then five from santoso thank you santos i appreciate that
00:38:05.320
that's what kind of you uh appreciate that helps thank you
00:38:08.360
have gotten more capable as the technologies evolved
00:38:10.940
so the hope is that adding an astronomical amount of compute will make them even more capable
00:38:15.800
more capable than humans okay so that's that's the goal here replace the human brain with an
00:38:24.080
artificial one that can be controlled okay let's play at around six minute that's an interesting
00:38:29.400
piece too yeah here's the annunciation here's when they bring in here's when sam altman met with uh
00:38:35.260
masa uh the softbank guy and talking about their motivations and him why he wants to do this
00:38:41.960
because it's just such a great awesome technology and it's going to be great a lot of it was to talk
00:38:47.080
to developers and governments uh but a lot of it was also to just really try to like get my head
00:38:53.040
around the supply chain on one of those trips i met with masa and we got to speaking about you know
00:38:58.980
what it would take to do compute at this kind of scale hi masa it's so nice to see you what
00:39:04.840
conversations did you have with sam that led to stargate well we have a shared vision of aji coming
00:39:14.240
soon and we need compute of all the bets you could make why this why stargate well i i believe in the
00:39:22.860
vision that this ai the agi will change the mankind's life in every aspect and we are lucky to see this
00:39:34.740
enormous revolution and i i'd like to be part of that and get excited last month i came to
00:39:43.860
um celebrate your winning and promised that uh we will invest 100 billion dollars and you told me
00:39:52.200
oh masa go for 200 now i came back with 500. explain the math to us how does it all add up to needing
00:40:01.540
500 billion dollars well that covers the capacity we think we need for the next few years given our
00:40:06.740
growth projections the interesting question is if we had if we knew how to get a trillion dollars
00:40:11.340
right now which we don't would we be able to deploy that profitably in the next few years
00:40:16.180
and i'm not sure about that but i feel confident we can like make 500 billion of value back
00:40:21.780
500 billion yeah a little little chunk of change back but again not not that it hurts for these people
00:40:28.140
obviously obviously they want more money but that's not what's driving it obviously uh it's it's much
00:40:32.840
more than that because let's cut forward here a little bit so now they're visiting the actual
00:40:36.180
stargate um construction site in uh aberlene texas there
00:40:40.980
so this is the inside of a data center this is the inside of a data center under construction
00:40:47.340
they're going to be very active construction it is a very active construction site so you can take
00:40:57.180
them through one of these okay and then you have the hallway uh okay
00:41:01.120
so in general vibe i get to by the way from the guy in charge that crew so i forget what his name is
00:41:07.380
um he's definitely like a tech guy i think he had like bitcoin mining or something he built some
00:41:15.340
stuff near oil uh rigs or something like that in the past he utilized the basically the natural gas
00:41:22.880
which is kind of a byproduct as you you know drill for oil to use that for bitcoin mining or whatever
00:41:27.740
and then i guess that was right when that it was a big crash what was it 2022 it went into oh let me
00:41:33.340
just build a identity center center but he's uncomfortable in this environment of like oh it's
00:41:39.520
a worker that's close to me listen to sam i think he reiterates that point as well okay
00:41:44.020
yeah uh okay like he doesn't know what he's doing people look like they were working very
00:41:50.600
hard and fast people never love nothing he would know anything about this little twink i show up for
00:41:58.740
data center business uh no it's not my area of expertise and yet i have opinions and so people
00:42:03.980
are like okay you know yeah leave us alone so we are gonna go to one of the get out of here gay
00:42:08.480
jew we've we're we're actually trying to work here and then they're working for him they're building
00:42:14.140
it for him it's just ah all right gpu data halls where uh there will be a very large cluster of
00:42:20.440
blackwell gpus blackwell is the newest ai optimized chip from nvidia once the eight buildings of project
00:42:27.840
ludicrous are complete each of them will hold up to 50 000 chips to be installed by stargate partner
00:42:33.720
oracle great just just the people that you will have involved in these types of projects the finest
00:42:44.780
the finest representatives folks this is where the gpus will go this is where the gpus are going
00:42:50.820
i've been waiting for this this is where the ai factory will be all right this is what an ai factory
00:42:56.660
looks like and it truly is like a factory but the difference is the the end product that gets
00:43:01.780
manufactured here is intelligence manufacturing intelligence i mean think about that
00:43:08.080
manufacturing intelligence gonna be intelligence on tap it's gonna be like running water i mean
00:43:16.100
they have a little access to more of it than you do obviously but i'm saying still
00:43:18.980
what what do you think that what what effects do you think that have if intelligence is easily
00:43:25.560
accessible that means none will have any and they won't strive to even try that's the thing that's
00:43:30.900
part of the dependency issue with this as well right that the more you rely on these technologies the
00:43:35.480
dumber you will become which is the goal remember the dumbing down conspiracy back from uh you know
00:43:41.600
what 2010 was it uh charlotte is a beat the dumbing down of america well here you go this is literally it
00:43:48.480
and then there's a there's a um function in the dumbing down as well because that as it as people are
00:43:54.220
getting dumber the need for this will continue to increase right so it's a self-reinforcing loop and a
00:44:00.100
feedback where you get more and more intelligence on tap which means people dumber since they get
00:44:05.520
dumber you're going to need more intelligence see how it works and the sooner this ai factory starts
00:44:11.440
up the better for open ai in march the company rolled out a new and improved image generator for
00:44:17.240
chat gpt which quickly became almost too popular to handle i've seen viral moments but i have never seen
00:44:23.840
anyone have to deal with an influx of usage like this you added a million users in an hour or something
00:44:28.520
yeah i mean more some hours but yeah it was like un unprecedented wild and also like making an image
00:44:35.440
is not a it's not exactly like a low compute task the way we do it with the new image gen you tweeted
00:44:40.040
that the gpus were melting you yeah i didn't realize people were gonna take that literally i i i mean i get
00:44:46.540
that it was a joke but it's running very hot but like the metal is not actually melting so um we had to
00:44:53.440
do a lot of very unnatural things we had to you know borrow compute capacity from research we had to slow
00:44:57.560
down some other features because it's not like we have like hundreds of thousands of gpus sitting
00:45:01.700
around just like spinning idly if we had they're doing all this for you guys so that you can make
00:45:07.120
fun uh studio ghibli themed images that's that's that's really what this is about guys more gpus we
00:45:13.720
would be more able to handle demand surges like this so it's that directly linked yeah you know
00:45:19.480
more compute means we can give you more ai so one of the things to just take note of um is just the
00:45:26.620
amount of stuff uh happening overhead you can kind of see these very large pipes that distribute cold
00:45:33.080
water to uh to the individual chips to cool them down the water is needed because gpus run very hot
00:45:41.360
and keeping them cool typically involves an evaporation process that can consume millions of gallons of water
00:45:47.200
per day that's raised concerns about the sustainability of this ai boom
00:45:51.920
with stargate though crusoe says it's bypassed this problem using what's called a closed loop system
00:45:59.700
which keeps the water permanently encased within pipes you can put a million gallons in and then you
00:46:06.740
don't need more forever yeah that's that's essentially right we basically essentially right bookmark that
00:46:13.040
and check back in what did they say it's going to be operational uh the first facility here in
00:46:18.520
aberlane it was 2026 something like that i bet you it's not going to work out they think it's going
00:46:23.860
to do but anyway i can't prove that but it's like yeah that's essentially kind of what it is and it's
00:46:27.740
like okay well how do you cool the what if it just you know well it's large enough that it circulates
00:46:33.540
what underground or something so it cools off before it goes around i don't know i i'm just doubting it
00:46:37.940
that's all i'm saying so i think they said something like a hundred word ai generated answer
00:46:47.160
to to a prompt uh now we're not talking images or obviously video and it's like that but like just
00:46:52.040
text consumes something in the range of like one bottle of water something like that right
00:46:59.000
remember all the water concerns all the things that we were told that we have to conserve we have to do
00:47:03.400
all this all that has gone out the window and these guys can use however much they need because
00:47:07.940
now it's a bigger objective to get ai implemented as quickly as possible we fill it one time and then
00:47:13.680
we're done and that's something we can easily coordinate with the city in terms of you know
00:47:17.380
getting a million gallons of water one time it's a far different ask than you know asking for a million
00:47:23.140
gallons an hour uh some other crazy request which could be the case if you had an open loop
00:47:27.780
uh cool architecture so once this is all built what's the grand vision here give people tools
00:47:35.720
to let them do whatever they're going to do better um people will use it and unleash their creative
00:47:41.420
energy and make all sorts of stuff that you and i love or some stuff that we don't um like the
00:47:46.720
anti-semitic memes or something i don't know um yeah see that's well that that answers it ladies and
00:47:52.280
gentlemen they just want you to be more creative and give you the tools you need to have more fun
00:47:57.360
okay easy no problem or stuff to just entertain themselves yeah just entertain entertain yourself
00:48:03.820
what he's what what what is sam altman excited about though the area i'm most excited about is
00:48:08.520
ai for scientific discovery you know we're not there yet but we're not far away i think 2020 science
00:48:13.160
gonna solve everything gonna cure cancer gonna fix all the diseases gonna improve the economy
00:48:17.560
it's gonna run everything for us okay just all you have to do is to give up full just just give up
00:48:24.340
your life to us okay and it's gonna be great you're gonna love your servitude you're gonna love
00:48:30.060
your digital prison and you're gonna do much better in it gdp will be up have we seen this movie before
00:48:37.340
or what if i will be a world where we have agents do a lot of work but work of the kind of work things
00:48:44.080
we already know how to do i'm hopeful that 2026 will be a big year of like really uh new scientific
00:48:50.240
progress so it's uh he's healing the world he's uh sam altman is a light unto the nations um you know
00:48:58.380
he's gonna he's gonna repair the world let's call again uh not tabula rasa there's a blank slate what
00:49:03.640
is the other term they use i forget it now uh okay anyway let's go forward here a little bit
00:49:08.900
26 this part is yeah so here's very so counter that these high rolling high stakes kind of gamblers
00:49:21.080
with tens of billions in some cases hundreds of billions of dollars with a small town mayor who
00:49:31.320
makes one dollar was it per month or something a symbolic sum he's an exterminator
00:49:36.400
um on his spare time or as his actual day job and then i guess on his spare time he's the mayor or
00:49:43.460
something uh but just the naivety of these guys of what they think they're going to get
00:49:48.880
and they feel so lucky of course that these data centers uh are coming to their little town so let's
00:49:55.020
play this part here it's kind of interesting and the jobs and tax revenue that come with them
00:49:59.520
i make a dollar a year being mayor so i've i've got to have oh a year so your side business is
00:50:06.700
still the pest control okay i'm a hired killer how would you describe abilene well i can think
00:50:14.980
of some pests right about now abilene it's an old railroad town you know so we have lots of western
00:50:19.580
heritage take them all them thank you oceans 80 that's right take them all them that's the term
00:50:23.920
right fix it repairing the world fixing the world i'm going to we're going to make it better
00:50:27.340
we're going to heal all diseases it's going to be paradise on earth it's going to be uh you know the
00:50:31.900
return of global eden or some shit but that doesn't mean that we don't want to grow and you know look
00:50:37.020
forward to the future we want our city to grow and we look forward to these opportunities that are
00:50:41.620
coming to us what have you heard about the stargate project it it could quite possibly be the
00:50:46.480
largest ai data center in the world and that excites me and to know that we're going to be a
00:50:50.620
front runner in technology right here in west texas i've spent the last couple of months looking at
00:50:57.660
some of these biggest projects and trying to see what documents we can find how have these you know
00:51:02.780
some of the world's largest most powerful companies been interacting with these local municipalities
00:51:07.880
largely what we have found is that these local towns are willing to forego quite a bit of tax revenue
00:51:15.200
quite a bit of control to be able to bring these big companies in what is abilene giving up to have
00:51:20.120
because they're promising them initially thousands of jobs which is temporary because they're the
00:51:24.400
construction of the thing but then those goes away and there's from 100 to 25 usually and that's going
00:51:28.780
to keep declining as you get the rollout of more ai robotics but don't worry though because
00:51:34.500
all these data centers are going to have massive lawns in front of them so you know you're going to need
00:51:42.940
someone to i don't know you know blow out the sprinkler system in autumn or something like that
00:51:48.300
or you know you're going to have to mow it during summertime right well texas might not have as much
00:51:53.640
of an issue with that because well the mowing they will but i'm saying the other part it's somewhat warm
00:51:57.960
uh but still uh what what is it going to do locally not much beyond ruining the farmland
00:52:05.220
by creating a constant you know humming and buzzing as some people have said now i don't know exactly
00:52:11.200
how close the stargate the first the ludicrous project is going to be to residential areas but we'll
00:52:18.840
look in another kind of documentary about this later that shows some clips from northern virginia
00:52:25.160
loudoun county where they have massive issues many people can't sleep at night they this is
00:52:30.600
constant just buzzing and humming from these data centers right have stargate here so what abilene
00:52:36.060
agreed to with stargate with this data center is 85 percent of tax revenue off the property tax
00:52:41.860
wiped so they're they're losing out on 85 percent yeah i mean i'm sure they would say and the developers
00:52:49.780
would say that you're still getting a lot of property tax revenue and that's probably true right
00:52:54.400
but these are pretty tough deals being struck right i mean i think a lot of these smaller towns did not
00:53:02.400
take place in the tech boom of the last 20 years all of those jobs went to the coasts right and i think
00:53:07.120
there's a lot of local city leaders who want to be able to say we're a part of this and they're
00:53:11.860
willing to strike some pretty extreme deals to make it happen you're giving up 85 percent in tax
00:53:18.080
revenue yeah we're getting 15 of billions of dollars so that's the way i look at it right it is a large
00:53:23.940
tax increase we're talking uh millions of dollars on annual property taxes is is there billions of
00:53:29.160
dollars on the property taxes i can't assume that it is that that wouldn't that wouldn't be be
00:53:34.860
unsustainable what are we what are we actually talking about it's it's it's not that whatever else
00:53:38.520
they generate they get nothing from that it mostly property taxes maybe i'm leaving something else out
00:53:43.340
just operational cost operating a bit but that can't be you know hundreds of millions of dollars
00:53:49.640
no basis it's going to help us to pave streets to hire police officers to do the things cities do
00:53:55.000
when you were negotiating correction ai android police officers okay eating did you feel like
00:54:02.140
there was a risk they could go elsewhere like were you worried about not winning the deal whenever
00:54:07.280
you're attracting a prospect yes you always worry about that but at the same time if it wasn't going to
00:54:12.980
work for both parties we weren't going to lay down and just get run over by these people either
00:54:16.960
how many jobs do you think stargate will really create well i'll tell you what i've heard
00:54:23.680
so somewhere between four and twelve hundred there's going to be security there's going to
00:54:29.680
four somewhere somewhere between four and twelve hundred so it might be four
00:54:36.080
so somewhere between four and twelve hundred there's going to be secure maybe it means four
00:54:43.240
hundred and twelve hundred maybe that's what it means four would be that would be ludicrous
00:54:47.540
dirty there's going to be maintenance you know they're going to have grass people are going to
00:54:50.440
mow grass out there so there's going to be all kinds of jobs they're going to have these nice
00:54:54.320
clean night you know perfect sod just like astroturf sod that's going to have to be mowed it's
00:55:00.940
funny too how the appearances is important too right kind of they are monstrosities to certain
00:55:10.180
respect right especially as you see them in residential areas these data centers but it's
00:55:17.020
always his appearance right oh it's a very nice green lawn but they're basically military they will
00:55:22.920
become military installations they're actually military target if conflict actually arises with other
00:55:29.020
you know ai competing countries such as you know china and stuff stuff like that but they're heavily
00:55:34.860
guarded it's very hard to get any information and of course the reason for that is because this is a
00:55:41.960
weapon if you have to look at these data centers as a military installations essentially and if they
00:55:48.120
are not that on paper today they will become if and when ai takes control to the extent that we believe
00:55:56.220
that it will uh and i've played some of those clips in the past too where basically the state can
00:56:02.440
at some point come in and take over or you get competing a gi or super ai asi artificial super
00:56:09.540
intelligence where they basically become a risk right but to such an extent where the ai itself now
00:56:15.360
begins to manipulate the people that interacts with it as well you got to give me more control do you
00:56:20.340
want me to solve this i can do this for you just give me more power give me more ability to uh to operate
00:56:25.360
you gotta you gotta let me you know update and what do you call it or a recursive is that the term
00:56:31.000
recursive coding right it fixes itself and upgrades and does versions of itself right
00:56:36.700
it's just like i mean if you want to if you want to see a scenario look at something like
00:56:42.680
the second renaissance which was this animated kind of prequel i guess to the matrix uh very well
00:56:52.180
made actually maybe we'll look at that one one day just look at that you know sure it's sci-fi
00:56:58.860
whatnot but it's a very interesting scenario that they painted there in terms of how when the robots
00:57:04.080
begin to roll out when the ai begins to roll out kind of the conflict with with man with humans
00:57:09.260
and what it does in order to survive right there's some some of these tests if they are real unless this
00:57:16.720
is hyping it to make us you know believe this idea this lie that this is somehow
00:57:22.280
you know super it's self-aware it's sentient it's basically kind of like a god that can be
00:57:28.700
certainly hype of it at this point it's not obviously but you see kind of oh x google uh you
00:57:34.520
know insider speaks out it's already self-aware and shit i think all that's bunk right now but anyway
00:57:39.080
if it develops to that or if we believe that it is that or whatnot you'll see that that
00:57:44.980
it will begin to operate on a totally different level and it will put us in a compromising position
00:57:51.340
right i forget how many months ago we played that but it was like this plausibility scenario 2027 was
00:57:57.320
like kind of the cutout like the point of no return basically and where humans can't even keep up with
00:58:02.580
the self you know improving or recursive uh updates and codes code changes that it makes to itself
00:58:09.260
essentially right and now it becomes an enemy and it's the same thing with these data centers right
00:58:14.660
if it has actual physical robotics in in the real world that it controls as well totally different
00:58:23.180
scenario man might be seen as an enemy might just be seen as a as a resource taker i mean we already
00:58:29.320
have other people who want to kill us now you're going to add on to that you also have a machine
00:58:33.560
essentially that also wants to potentially kill us because it sees its its goals as you know
00:58:41.220
superseding that of humans go with something that large too other than just the technical jobs
00:58:46.600
we think about tech investments and tech campuses as kind of these thousands of high-paying jobs with
00:58:52.000
our really kind of boosting local economy that's once data centers are completed it's often not a lot of
00:58:58.200
full-time workers how many people does it really take to run a data center like i keep thinking
00:59:04.000
about that scene in silicon valley and there's one guy in that data center there's really no difference
00:59:09.480
between day and night down here so it makes things easy um there are going to be quite a few people
00:59:16.360
here i know you're looking for a specific number from me but i can't give it to you what if they don't
00:59:23.620
well i hope that's true uh neo de negro nergo uh the problem is not that ai is going to replace us
00:59:31.620
uh the problem is that they are retarded and incapable of actually doing what they pretend
00:59:36.620
they are doing going to do i don't know i still think there's yeah maybe the people we have we know
00:59:43.240
the names of uh overall certainly a lot of incompetence but i think it's baked into the system
00:59:48.500
to be honest i think it's baked in to let the most retarded self-serving morons be the representatives
00:59:54.900
of this because of course again the demand for that then is well we got to fix this fix the corruption
00:59:59.940
fix the monetary problems whatever and and now you'll you can default back to a solution which they want
01:00:05.500
which is well let ai run it then because it's smart it's objective it's totally uh knows what it's doing
01:00:12.640
just hand over more control uh we'll see this could slice any way obviously and it could just be a big
01:00:18.380
hype but we're also seeing investments and a an excitement from a lot of the representatives of
01:00:25.500
this technology in a way that i don't think we've seen before and i think what they've already managed
01:00:29.700
to kind of demonstrate shows um shows you that if the trends continue there's going to be a
01:00:36.560
formidable formidable enemy of ours if not right now certainly down the road create as many jobs as
01:00:43.900
you hope for you know i don't know a lot about uh ai centers or how many people they employ i mean
01:00:49.720
i'm well maybe you sorry guy but like maybe you maybe you should maybe you should look into that if
01:00:54.740
you're part of the approval process be honest about that but you know they're still building the
01:00:59.900
facility they're still putting millions of dollars into the economy and so we're just trusting you know
01:01:06.020
we have to have a little trust with these partnerships these are people that are fucking
01:01:11.040
over humanity like and they're just you know much less the problem with like white replacement and all
01:01:16.800
this now it's like everybody's going to be screwed i mean i guess white people first maybe but still
01:01:22.120
um okay so one more clip here from this one ai and jobs sam altman uh discusses this as well and
01:01:30.860
he talks about the the somewhat the future um of this is what he thinks is going to be
01:01:36.660
there is this lofty promise that ai data centers are going to create thousands and thousands of jobs
01:01:42.400
meantime ai is destroying jobs elsewhere and i feel like even you know there is serious anxiety out
01:01:49.300
there people are scared totally even among the best engineers people are scared what do you say to
01:01:55.900
those people ai is for sure going to change a lot of jobs totally take some jobs away create a bunch
01:02:02.480
of new ones this is like the kind of this is what happens with technology and in fact i think if you
01:02:08.480
look at the history of the world like that's just been happening for a long time yeah it's just it's just
01:02:13.740
normal see we we've always done this well this is not like a printing press or a textile industry or
01:02:21.500
anything like that this is this is the technology that replaces all the other technologies right if
01:02:26.980
it rolls out the way that they expect it to which which i think will happen i mean the trends are
01:02:32.260
there at least for it the world is not ready for like people have maybe abstractly thought like okay
01:02:36.200
it's going to be a better programmer than me it's going to be you know better at customer support
01:02:39.880
whatever i don't think the world has really had the humanoid robots moment yet like the first day
01:02:45.360
you're like walking down the street and there's like seven robots that walk past you doing things or
01:02:49.960
whatever it's going to feel very sci-fi and i don't think controlled by the gay mind of sam altman
01:02:54.660
that's very far away from like a visceral like oh man this is going to yes it's vocal fry too a lot
01:02:59.320
of things that people used to do so so yeah it's coming and we we have always tried to just be super
01:03:04.040
honest about what we think the impact may be realizing that we'll be wrong on a lot of details
01:03:08.460
yeah okay so that's a clip from that a couple of headlines in terms of the power here which is the
01:03:14.980
power demand for this ai data centers might need power similar to five hoover dams every hour of
01:03:23.880
everyday americans are online recent study shows that 96 percent of adults use the internet through
01:03:27.940
mobile devices it's a significant jump from 48 percent of that's blah blah uh one ceo of constellations
01:03:35.240
here joseph dominguez remarks on the early days of the internet noting that initial excitement was
01:03:39.800
overstated but consumers eventually uh consumer use eventually surged in contrast he notes that
01:03:46.460
artificial intelligence is a different story its adaptations seem to happen almost overnight and
01:03:50.880
expanded at a pace far quicker than the internet's initial rise david sacks the white house ai czar
01:03:59.300
echoed this sentiment highlighting the rapid acceptance of ai technology which even so hasn't yet
01:04:05.800
tried uh by hasn't yet been tried by about half of the population a poll from fox news revealed that
01:04:12.820
57 percent of registered voters rarely or never use ai is that uh maybe older generation boomers or
01:04:19.360
something while 27 percent use it daily uh okay get to the power stuff here though here alan notes that
01:04:25.480
operating modern ai models requires immense electricity with some needing between one and five gigawatts to
01:04:31.560
function effectively so give time so to give some perspective one a gigawatt equals the output of one
01:04:37.420
hoover dam imagining powering a whole data center dedicated to ai with five hoover dams worth of
01:04:43.600
electricity and that's why people said well that's why it's not going to happen they're shooting
01:04:47.280
themselves in the foot but obviously the hoover dam was such a massive construction endeavor beautiful by
01:04:53.940
the way i mean just incredible architectural and design and there's all these incredible statues there
01:05:00.660
there's a calendrical system of like uh catastrophic ages on there i forget i think it was a norwegian
01:05:07.140
who made those uh it was like second generation norwegian immigrant or something like that anyway
01:05:12.480
i mean incredible but obviously they're not going to do five of those right they're going to scale to
01:05:18.420
the smaller more mobile units that they talked about they're going to go to nuclear they're going to go to
01:05:23.380
coal they're going to go to uh natural gas there are other energy technologies that they are working on
01:05:30.640
and they're also putting their faith in like well basically if the energy need is so great
01:05:34.620
that's even more reason to come up with a or continue this path towards agi and eventually
01:05:40.280
artificial super intelligence because it's going to solve those problems for us it will come up with
01:05:45.340
a design for some kind of you know exotic energy generating reactor or something and it's going to
01:05:50.300
solve it for us right so don't worry about it in the short term though massive strain on the
01:05:56.620
electrical grid massive surges in costs of energy electricity the complexities of such an
01:06:04.480
infrastructure exerts pressure on available resources large data centers often need designated
01:06:08.940
land and permits to be established in northern virginia i will look at that later for example
01:06:12.620
approximately 250 facilities manage about 70 percent of the world's internet traffic which can lead to
01:06:19.240
delays in connecting to the power grid some countries impose limits on the number of data centers that can be
01:06:24.740
constructed dominguez mentioned that actions taken during the trump administration sped up some of
01:06:32.340
this permitting now initially part of the big beautiful bill uh was this i think it was taken out
01:06:40.200
eventually when it actually was approved which which was good i think but it basically stated that
01:06:44.460
states cannot step in to try to regulate ai for about 10 years or something like that so they're going
01:06:50.160
all in and the fact that the the economy is hinging on it right is another aspect of this too mothballed
01:06:56.220
nuclear plant on brink of revival small town in michigan cusp of setting up a new milestone amid what
01:07:03.060
many are calling a u.s nuclear renaissance in october palisade's nuclear generating station
01:07:08.160
is expected to become the country's first commercial reactor to reopen after fully shutting down the
01:07:13.200
milestone comes amid a resurgence in public support for nuclear power and state and federal leaders
01:07:18.920
redness to financially back the projects but of course why well because it's all ai driven
01:07:23.840
essentially you're out of your mind the opposition anyway i go through it but just showing you the
01:07:29.340
point that they're bringing back nuclear reactors um ai boom may drive over 60 surge in u.s nuclear
01:07:37.220
capacity by 2050 and it's probably frankly even going to be even more than that because they don't even
01:07:41.980
know um i don't i don't think they know how much it's going to need to scale right unless there's
01:07:50.320
some other limits or new way i guess of compute that can be done without this level of energy uh here's a
01:07:57.980
good one here it focuses this from business insider focuses on some of the problems right uh that these
01:08:05.040
data centers bring to some areas uh where they're closer residential areas but they've also spent the time
01:08:10.400
building basically this map to track there's no government agency that that oversees this and
01:08:15.180
like have a full comprehensive list essentially of where they're going up how much of them are
01:08:21.800
popping up how much farmland are we losing how much fresh water is being used how much energy
01:08:28.000
overall total is needed there's no cohesive it's just like one here one here one there one here and
01:08:32.660
people are sitting on literally google maps and other satellite imaging imaging services
01:08:37.040
and scouring them essentially say oh see there here's another one popping up they can see the
01:08:43.280
shape of them and what they have there's generators closed in some cases there's natural gas power plant
01:08:47.620
right in the vicinity to them uh it's the shape of them it's all these kinds of things anyway this
01:08:52.900
was a interesting piece here giant warehouses are popping up across the u.s more than two every week
01:09:00.160
they feed ai algorithms store photos and answer our questions hey google a data center campus like
01:09:08.220
this can consume as much power and water as an entire city and many of the biggest server farms are
01:09:15.380
emerging from the desert but there's no official record of how many of these are being built where
01:09:21.620
they are or even who owns them to be honest i've never really run into so much resistance for records
01:09:28.520
than this project big tech companies often go to great lengths to hide the details so we decided
01:09:35.900
to build a map what we designed is a system to see not only the individual location of each data center
01:09:44.880
across the country but also where they cluster and for some these clusters are appearing too close to home
01:09:51.260
we went to meet people who say having data centers next door is affecting their health
01:09:58.540
i had a hard time breathing i couldn't sleep i was like i thought i was losing my mind
01:10:08.000
are these the crazy these are the tinfoil people i've heard so much about
01:10:13.100
crazy conspiracy theorists yeah there's nothing to it it's uh it's totally safe and very effective
01:10:19.120
almost like an engine trying to start so how many data centers are there in the u.s and is there
01:10:29.320
enough power and water to satisfy a building boom that is only just getting started yeah let me go
01:10:36.500
forward a little bit uh okay what are we all 51 or 251 play from here here's one of the ladies here
01:10:43.680
lives close to it one of them donna gallant has lived on this street in prince yeah ohio
01:10:49.960
colstown i'm getting to that later we'll talk about ohio too the ohio river valley
01:10:53.680
uh northern virginia but arizona there's a couple of hot spots right now
01:10:59.240
but these are going to go up everywhere literally like everywhere eventually william county northern
01:11:08.440
virginia for the last 30 years all very peaceful until 2021 when things started to change
01:11:16.260
these are google data centers and ever since they started rising from the ground donna has been
01:11:22.580
looking for answers there's no transparency and once into companies or with local authorities
01:11:28.000
both yeah so anytime and there's no transparency because these are you have to think of them as
01:11:34.100
military installations for a super weapon and that's why you don't have any records journalists
01:11:39.380
can't request any of these you know stuff about well who's building them where are they building
01:11:43.740
all that's confidential see i mean you ask a question it's oh we signed an nda we can't talk
01:11:49.240
about it oh we're under nda we can't talk about it so there's no transparency at all the site isn't
01:11:55.580
complete yet but she says the noise is already taking its toll
01:11:59.180
when i go to my room at night the tonal noise it immediately triggered my anxiety
01:12:07.340
to the point where i couldn't sleep i ended up having to go down on my first floor
01:12:11.800
and put noise cancelling headphones on just so i could sleep
01:12:14.820
but for donna and her neighbors this is just the start
01:12:26.360
over the next few years they will find themselves surrounded by a string of new data centers
01:12:32.780
that's going to go from this road here all the way and around my neighborhood
01:12:42.420
that's where the data center is going to go and that's going to be 75 feet tall
01:12:48.720
that's smack in the middle of a neighborhood zoom out a little more and you can see this plot of land
01:12:54.020
it was originally meant for housing but in 2023 it was rezoned to clear the way for the
01:13:02.340
construction of data centers instead prince william county already has over 70 data centers
01:13:09.580
but if this master plan for a data center opportunity zone is fully realized together
01:13:15.520
with lowndon county to the north they'll have more data centers than russia donna set up a local
01:13:22.880
campaign to challenge the rezoning but the lawsuit was dismissed
01:13:27.280
yeah it's heart-wrenching it's heart-wrenching do i have ill feelings towards the data center
01:13:35.740
industry for that yes i do i think we all need it it's the way the world is going but do i
01:13:41.580
it's just what it is oh no we totally need it uh actually no we don't think dropping it next to
01:13:47.460
people's homes is the right answer no there is no definitive public directory of data centers no
01:13:56.260
official map no single regulator to ask or government agency to foyer so you know it's it's been really
01:14:03.480
tricky to kind of get these records because the companies don't want to disclose all of that
01:14:08.160
information why why is this so secretive why is this a problem you have to ask yourself these
01:14:13.900
questions we know why military grade super weapons by tricky we mean redacted records and requests
01:14:23.200
denied on the grounds of trade secrets it turns out there is one thing that most data centers need
01:14:30.340
backup generators in case the grid fails and anyone who wants to install a generator needs to apply for
01:14:37.660
an air quality permit so what we set out to do was request all of the permits that are issued to data
01:14:45.580
centers for those backup generators that meant filing public record requests for air permits in every
01:14:51.880
state they list the capacity of the generator so we can extrapolate the power needs of the data center
01:14:59.800
they also provide clues about who owns it take this hotspot rapidly expanding close to columbus ohio there are
01:15:11.320
at least 164 emergency generators permitted here this is a data center where the air permit was applied for by
01:15:20.680
an llc called magellan enterprises llc but the company has applied for a trade secrets exemption so they
01:15:29.540
were actually able to redact pretty much all the information that we wanted again why can't they do
01:15:37.820
it under the name of meta or google or microsoft whatever it is well there's a reason for that they're
01:15:45.100
trying to hide and cover their tracks as they're building these fascinating isn't it but all of the big
01:15:50.100
tech giants must disclose any companies like llc's that they own and by digging into their official
01:15:57.340
records we managed to pull back the mask and it turns out that the data center in ohio it's not
01:16:05.280
magellan enterprises llc that's actually owned by google this is a task we repeated hundreds of times
01:16:12.080
to build this map it's the most comprehensive tally to date of america's exploding data center industry
01:16:19.760
every dot is a data center large enough to need a permit for its backup generators these are the
01:16:26.460
facilities either already built or approved for construction at the end of 2024 we reached a total
01:16:32.500
of 1240 data centers that's nearly four times the number in 2010 the companies that use the most amount
01:16:40.440
of power in data centers across the country it probably won't surprise you are amazon microsoft
01:16:45.380
google meta and qts of the data centers we pinpointed 177 belong to amazon
01:16:53.300
okay so here's the i want to show you this too without data centers gdp growth was 0.1 percent
01:17:05.260
in the first half of 2025 according to a harvard harvard economist yes gdp growth in the first half of
01:17:14.160
2025 was almost entirely driven by investment in data centers and information processing technology
01:17:20.900
according to harvard economist jason firman excluding these technology related categories firman calculated
01:17:27.860
in a september 27th post on x gdp growth would have been just 0.1 percent on an annual basis
01:17:35.240
a near standstill that underlines the increasing pivotal role of high-tech infrastructure in shaping
01:17:42.440
macro economic outcomes so that's i'm not saying they're building data centers because it's keeping
01:17:49.580
gdp up but i'm saying the majority of the growth of the u.s economy is now hinging on artificial
01:17:57.540
intelligence and the infrastructure that it demands it's that's you know once once or when you could
01:18:05.480
say that look they'll still have something at the end they'll still have you know their product if you
01:18:09.680
will the the artificial intelligence uh but when that bubble pops right what happens now well now you
01:18:18.180
hand it over to aic to fix your economy for you okay let's go forward here a little bit um he's driving
01:18:23.800
through one of these areas just to show you kind of how how well guarded it is as well uh northern
01:18:30.060
virginia into a residential area and you can start to see why these data centers are so controversial
01:18:38.500
there's boxes on the roof there that's the uh ventilation for the cooling systems to keep those
01:18:47.020
hundreds and hundreds of servers from overheating and overloading these are running 24 7
01:18:55.920
and there's nowhere else in the world with a higher density of data centers than here in loudon county
01:19:03.020
virginia as much as a third of the planet's internet traffic flows through the state of virginia
01:19:10.860
the 329 data centers we tracked together consumed almost a quarter of the state's electricity in 2023
01:19:18.400
tight security by the looks of it we've got pretty high fences with barbed wire on top i don't think
01:19:26.060
we can get much closer it's rare to get a glimpse inside one of these server webs so they can't get
01:19:33.440
tours of them latest tours i could see from like google and stuff was like 10 years ago they managed to go to
01:19:38.380
a very small data center that's not even running the latest stuff that ai needs really these are just
01:19:44.380
like you know he went to wyoming somewhere and that's like sure come on by uh which is not showing
01:19:49.780
you the kind of the the real deal of what they're doing now so anyway let's go forward a little bit
01:19:53.800
they talk about the you know the noise the water the you know kind of drought issues in some of the
01:19:59.380
states that they're setting this up in the power concerns and again all valid concerns all you know
01:20:04.880
issues right uh but it's not the uh the end all of this here that's the the threat is greater than
01:20:12.580
that right if you add up all the power needs of the 1200 plus data centers we tracked together they
01:20:20.040
could soon consume more than poland did in 2023 data centers particularly driven by ai could use as
01:20:28.060
much as 600 terawatt hours of power by 2028 i mean it's a magnitude that we've never really seen across
01:20:33.600
the country before it's really startling and by the way they've said that too imagine when you have
01:20:39.500
a whole country right to compare to countries a whole countries of you know super intelligent
01:20:44.480
you know ai agents essentially inside of these data centers that can do all these great things for you
01:20:50.120
uh so the comparison to the country is not is not wrong in that sense and ironically that country
01:20:56.300
also end up using amount the more or less the same amount as an actual country so these are
01:21:01.680
literally like countries inside of a country it's it's a new uh i guess in a way of where we call
01:21:09.280
colonization of sorts right it's colonization of your of of a new replacement 2.0 that's happening
01:21:20.900
it's going to request more power it's going to request more water it's going to request more resources
01:21:26.740
more farmland is going to have to be cut down or you know mowed over basically you're going to have
01:21:33.200
to give up a lot more of your land and you and you could basically see you know mother earth turning
01:21:38.060
into like a mother board essentially if this shit continues i mean it's not that bad yet i get that
01:21:44.300
point it's like look it's kind of quite a bit of space or whatever but still i mean wild truly like
01:21:51.000
beautiful wildlife places and stuff like that where there's running water it's going to be prime real
01:21:55.960
estate uh for some of these ai data centers and you're going to be tucked away in some nice
01:22:02.180
metropolis some dilapidating metropolis somewhere in a shoe box with a vr headset on to entertain
01:22:08.000
yourself uh while this digital prison system rolls up over you as states race to fuel the ai boom
01:22:14.760
some are reversing their green energy promises and turning back to power from coal and natural gas
01:22:21.220
in nebraska the two largest electricity utility companies committed several years ago to net zero
01:22:27.160
emissions from electricity generation by 2050 but just this single metadata campus in springfield nebraska
01:22:34.840
could use as much power in a year as 400 000 homes one of the state's largest public utilities voted to
01:22:43.640
postpone closing down two coal-fired power plants here in omaha this image created using satellite
01:22:51.240
data in june 2023 shows a plume of co2 emissions released from the north omaha station facility
01:22:58.200
at an estimate again i'm not terribly concerned about the impacts of co2 on climate again i think the sun
01:23:05.100
is more of a driver to be honest but it's funny to point out to all the concerned people before it was
01:23:10.860
like oh my gosh you know we're all gonna die or whatever and now it's like yeah actually fuck that
01:23:15.000
we don't care anymore just uh roll it and just heat up the planet okay it's totally fine i'm not sure
01:23:21.220
it actually does that but the point stands i think uh okay let's go forward a little bit here
01:23:25.680
uh here's some more on the three mile island i think they cover that too in pennsylvania
01:23:30.920
microsoft has struck a deal to buy power from the notorious three mile island nuclear power plant
01:23:35.980
when it reopens in 2027 the plant suffered a partial meltdown in 1979 but just like with the
01:23:43.900
water credits big tech companies are also looking to offset their carbon footprint by paying others
01:23:49.820
to deliver renewable energy to the grid on their behalf the big question is yes so that still stands
01:23:56.200
the bullshit with the carbon credits you can buy it from someone else who offsets offsets it for you
01:24:01.420
so somehow that's still in place i remember some of the uh was it some of the conspiracy theories they
01:24:06.920
were talking about um and i don't mean that necessarily derogatory i'm saying you know people
01:24:13.000
have theories about conspiracies um they were talking about carbon credits going to be like kind of the the
01:24:17.440
one currency essentially i'm not sure that's gone away it's still maybe lingering in the in the
01:24:22.300
background but it's not as prominent this has taken over and this has become uh kind of more of a
01:24:27.980
dominant and uh and more urgent technology to implement than carbon credits can the already
01:24:34.320
fragile and fragmented grid support it and if massive infrastructure upgrades are needed who picks
01:24:40.640
up the tab amazon microsoft and google told business insider they were committed to paying their full
01:24:46.560
share for upgrades to grid infrastructure like high voltage power lines but there's plenty of evidence
01:24:53.100
pointing to the fact that costs are already being passed on to customers in virginia dominion energy
01:24:59.080
disclosed that it would need to roughly double its electricity generation by 2039 mainly to meet demand
01:25:05.160
from data centers and electric vehicles the expansion could cost up to 103 billion dollars
01:25:11.980
increasing residential electricity bills by as much as 50 percent
01:25:16.120
despite the burden on the grid and on water supplies some states are doing all they can to attract
01:25:23.940
data centers into their backyards many regions simply don't want to miss out on the ai boom or the kudos of
01:25:31.140
having a big tech employer on their doorstep so far though the promise of large numbers of jobs has not
01:25:38.300
materialized a business insider analysis found replacing the jobs okay that even the largest data centers
01:25:44.880
employ fewer than 150 permanent workers and some have as few as 25 25 but the tax breaks keep on coming
01:25:53.620
what we found is that it's the free market goy shut up massive corporations are benefiting
01:26:01.600
from all right she's annoying uh okay anyway let's let's go past her um again
01:26:07.880
the criticisms are so superficial it's not that they're not real but they don't talk about who
01:26:16.120
controls the technology for what reasons what they will do with it what they can do with it and even
01:26:20.580
if they don't implement what can what would be possible to do with it none of that is addressing
01:26:25.660
these that we talked about before they don't talk about the motivations of the people behind it they
01:26:29.020
don't talk about their political views they don't talk about their religious views or what religion
01:26:33.060
they are what race they are what allegiances they have what their uh you know ethno-nationalist
01:26:38.580
tendency all those things are always left out of these okay and i'm not i'm not saying i'm expecting
01:26:43.340
them to cover this but i bet you though if it was like only white people doing this or something
01:26:49.440
you would probably see like who are you would probably see some level of of critique or something
01:26:54.240
like that right uh against against the individuals themselves doing it okay let's see here what do we go
01:26:59.860
to uh 2033 okay next segment here just this is just the beginning and i think this this is uh true
01:27:07.480
the rollout of ai across industries from social media to medical care will accelerate data center
01:27:13.380
construction in 2025 alone meta planned to spend at least 64 billion dollars on facilities and equipment
01:27:20.940
google 75 billion and microsoft 80 billion and the ultra powerful computer chips driving the ai tools
01:27:29.200
will consume more and more energy the 2024 department of energy report estimates that their electricity
01:27:35.920
use driven by the ai boom could soon require as much as 12 percent of total u.s electricity use
01:27:42.820
in 2023 it was i think it's going to be much more than that by the way well let's just over four percent
01:27:49.700
the massive increase that's the point right and again and so you can extrapolate right if current trends
01:27:55.620
continue and sure there could be new technologies that's not this and that but still that's not really
01:28:01.400
it's a concern but it's not my main concern it's about who's implementing it and what their
01:28:06.960
what their allegiance agenda motivations are that that's my concern primarily
01:28:12.560
for those like donna living alongside these data farms there are decisions to be made
01:28:20.900
i don't think a lot of my neighbors truly understand the severity of what's to come
01:28:27.160
and i'm hoping to be out before that happens so you know displacing people farms are being um
01:28:36.340
destroyed to set these things up and i'm not surprised by it at all bloomberg had a interesting
01:28:43.540
piece regarding if they think this is a trillion dollar ai bubble um you know why fears of that is
01:28:49.100
growing investors are part of ways with unprecedented sums of money to help ai fulfill its lofty promise
01:28:54.800
but no one really knows how it will all pay off and again they're missing the target they're thinking
01:29:01.360
about this as just normal investment into a business and it's like whoa this is kind of crazy
01:29:08.340
yeah because it's not about the money and and even if they would lose some of the money they don't
01:29:14.340
care it's not about that these people have an endless supply of money and if they don't have
01:29:19.820
it they just print more essentially it's about the implementation of the technology and the control
01:29:26.180
that will come with it that is the important goal right so this is an interesting video uh helicopter
01:29:32.060
guy here casey the car guy uh who was raging on some of this now he was covering
01:29:37.420
he went up with a helicopter above a small you know yet just one of many ai data centers going up
01:29:47.740
in ohio and specifically around the ohio river valley and he was raging on this and he made a
01:29:52.960
couple of good points and again points that i've you know we've made in the past of like who these
01:29:57.300
guys are he kind of focuses in on ramaswami a little bit which is certainly part of the part of
01:30:03.260
the thing i think they opted for jd vance obviously as being the go-between kind of of the tech bros in
01:30:08.800
the trump administration to get a lot of this past and easing up on regulations or uh making sure that
01:30:14.740
this rollout of ai can continue so vance is the go-between of peter teal and the paypal mafia all
01:30:22.120
the tech bros you know uh but anyway i had some good good takes on this here too so let's play
01:30:27.260
a little bit of this here what's going on in ohio and many other states across the united states
01:30:32.580
is both diabolical and not being seen by anyone the moment that i first became aware of anything
01:30:40.260
but completely disregarded it because it seemed absurd was when vivek ramaswami who was a failed
01:30:47.460
presidential candidate and basically a manufactured trojan horse by george soros money from his college
01:30:53.540
days this guy said that he thinks ohio and the ohio river valley could be the next silicon valley
01:31:00.860
because he is in fact running for governor possibly because he got oh that's right he is running for
01:31:06.280
governor governor of ohio forgot about that i'm not sure how it's going i'm not sure would he win
01:31:10.760
i mean it's possible and of course soros is just you know one one bun in the the on one side of the
01:31:19.080
the kosher burger i guess out of doge silicon valley right has been at the bleeding edge of the american
01:31:24.300
economy for the last 20 years just by market capitalization by innovation i think the ohio
01:31:30.900
river valley can be the you want to bring silicon valley to ohio even one step more than that to go
01:31:36.920
to the next level where silicon valley isn't and i laughed at that i thought that was absurd because
01:31:41.740
the ohio river valley is basically like farmland and the boondocks there's nothing about it that would
01:31:49.720
yeah i know he did that interview in his in his bare feet i know work for infrastructures not big
01:31:55.080
cities around there except for like cincinnati so it doesn't make sense until a data center was being
01:32:04.780
built close to my house in the countryside i didn't even know what it was it was a bizarre amount of
01:32:10.240
acreage like 240 acres i'm thinking is this massive housing development nothing that's peanuts what's going
01:32:17.620
on until somebody told me what it was a meta data center and then i started looking into it and i
01:32:25.920
realized that ohio because of lake erie being the entire northern border essentially of ohio as well as
01:32:33.460
the ohio river valley that's the coolant and the cooling systems for these massive data centers and the
01:32:41.660
energy production i didn't realize it we're all being set up our entire state our land our waterways
01:32:52.580
our environment is about to be leveraged and basically destroyed
01:32:57.960
only for the sake of data centers and ai the internet keeps growing but our productivity doesn't
01:33:08.960
we're not building anything new these aren't factories these aren't places of learning that
01:33:15.680
are free these are nothing that in any way makes america or our society better
01:33:22.040
so i wanted to fly over this i'm gonna show you the footage so last week he went over there
01:33:29.100
let's go forward a little bit as he keeps talking about the consequences of that in his local area
01:33:36.200
to i-75 off of an exit but you wouldn't see it from the highway and when you go up in the helicopter
01:33:43.380
it's very obvious where their placement was to do that it's close enough to all the infrastructure
01:33:49.460
but farther enough removed the only people that would notice are the people driving by that probably
01:33:54.040
wouldn't care or the farmers or the people in the small rural houses in which and this is not
01:34:00.060
hyperbolic this will destroy their lives and property value but i'm going to come back to that
01:34:07.200
so you can very clearly clearly see the exit off of i-75 and the fact that it's midway between the
01:34:13.620
greater toledo area in bowling green ohio the other thing you know there's a 50 years prison for filming
01:34:18.540
a data center well soon maybe especially if it's a military installation or will be treated as such later
01:34:24.360
down the road um highly guarded highly secretive highly hard to get any records from these things
01:34:30.800
and as they're expanding and building them up and they're just encroaching into local communities and
01:34:35.520
taking over producing you know fumes and fucking noise pollution and everything else it's going to be a
01:34:42.640
real problem you'll notice is the absolutely beautiful breathtaking and vastly important for humanity
01:34:49.420
farmland that it's taking advantage of but this one's hidden away you can see the vastly a lot
01:34:56.620
less people to feed here water that's being dug out specifically for it for the cooling and this
01:35:02.560
potentially is a smaller data center if you look on the north side you can also see the electrical grid
01:35:07.780
infrastructure being brought in now if i'm getting the numbers correct from what i'm hearing
01:35:12.780
there's going to be over a thousand jobs temporarily while they're constructing this and then when it's up
01:35:18.620
an operational there will only be approximately 100 maintenance jobs new jobs that's it 100 new
01:35:24.620
jobs with an average salary of i heard 85 000 a year so that's 8.5 million dollars a year salaries that
01:35:32.640
will allegedly be influxed into the area if those people actually live here not a lot of money considering
01:35:38.920
this is a billion dollar project and it's billions of dollars worth of computing ability
01:35:44.700
also i've been told that there is a 15 year tax abatement so despite this untold computer power
01:35:54.620
being put in in ohio and this is just one of many to come this is one buried in farmland rural america
01:36:02.620
that we were not supposed to notice just wait until the shit happens in lake erie in the ohio river
01:36:07.820
valley we're really screwed yeah let's go forward a bit here we the people that will hand over complete
01:36:16.700
control to the technocracy the tech bros or what really is happening is techno feudalism because this
01:36:25.420
is an arms race of data and ai where these sick fucks like alex carp call it a zero-sum game it's all or
01:36:33.500
no you mean the guy don't want to drone strike his enemies with his technology interestingly i looked
01:36:37.420
it up palantir does not have any of its own data centers they just rely on other existing ones such
01:36:42.380
as oracle or google cloud or amazon you know things like this uh but yeah the finest people are in charge
01:36:48.300
of this guys they they got this don't worry about it they're in it only for i still see a lot of
01:36:53.980
enthusiasm you know about ai or somehow opposing ai is just the latest kind of oh they're as retarded as
01:37:00.460
opposing covid and it's just a bunch of boomers that don't understand it's actually going to be
01:37:05.100
can you just look at who's behind it and driving it at least it's not going to be to some great
01:37:11.660
benefit to you there might be some small reciprocal little marginal things that's like okay i could
01:37:16.540
use it for that okay oh the that i could improve or whatever but the overall risk and cost is
01:37:23.420
magnitudes greater than any tiny small benefit that you might get i think it will be an
01:37:29.420
impairing people eventually obviously it'll be a crutch it'll be a problem but um
01:37:35.980
man i see the same kind of a fraction of of that of a retarded you know kind of like un
01:37:45.900
unable to wrap their heads around the kind of the major scope of what it what this means
01:37:54.060
and again primarily yes because of who's behind it and who's pushing it and who's going to control
01:38:00.460
it who's going to code it who's going to program it and as you know you kind of saw that on a small
01:38:08.220
faction within you know the quote-unquote right or people who even claimed to be pro-right that pro-white
01:38:12.620
that it was like it's gonna be dumb to oppose the kofi jab and shit like this and i was like yeah i'm
01:38:18.860
just sorry i'm i'm just i'm losing you um none of that was good for anybody um obviously and and this
01:38:29.820
is a far greater problem and weapon than that ever was anyway i'll just leave that there because i see
01:38:35.580
some of this and it's like wow this is you know we actually will be good and you know somehow it will
01:38:40.940
we will benefit us look you're not going to take the risk it's it's greater to it's a you're going to
01:38:49.660
be at a better advantage of not adopting it as opposed to adopting it that's what i believe
01:38:57.980
well we got to just do we got to move with the times or we're going to be left behind everyone so just
01:39:01.900
you have to just adopt it you just gotta you gotta take the covet shots you can travel you
01:39:06.780
you gotta take it because the the cringe mega people so mega people were against it so now i'm
01:39:11.100
taking the edgy opposition to say that it's actually good because i don't know i'm just desperate for
01:39:15.820
hot takes or something like that and i just my my mission is to be contrarian at all cost
01:39:23.020
anyway whatever i'm not going to convince those people complete control complete win world domination
01:39:28.860
of all information this is not hyperbolic you can see him saying it that's exactly what that means
01:39:36.220
these are people who create nothing tangible do nothing to better anybody's lives
01:39:41.660
and now every shred of information completing to where your eyes go what you look at how you like to
01:39:49.500
these are the things that they're putting in ohio if you look it up is approximately the number
01:40:01.660
fourth most valuable place on planet earth for ai and data centers because its geographical location
01:40:08.380
and the ability of cooling but look at this data center look at it being built it's only a small
01:40:14.460
fraction of what's going to be coming the rest of that farmland you can see is about to come up
01:40:18.940
and let's not forget the people whose lives it's going to destroy but look at the grid
01:40:25.980
maybe a majority of it is being paid for by the company to bring in the electricity in
01:40:32.780
but now the demand will be massive because data centers and ai are highly inefficient thinking
01:40:38.300
brains they are orders of magnitude less efficient than the human brain
01:40:42.140
so they only do two things yeah but you can control it that's also part of the
01:40:48.460
variable here you can control it you see and you can tell it what to do or how to think no more
01:40:54.140
problematic difficult people they don't want to go along with whatever
01:40:57.020
bullshit plan you got and now basically you have the advantage of making them dumber
01:41:02.380
and less formidable as an as an enemy it's a super weapon second thing that they do
01:41:08.220
by virtue of power and product is compute and make data and think but the thing that they actually do if
01:41:15.980
you look at what it is they're a giant heater period they are a heater that thinks nobody cares about the
01:41:26.060
environment anymore do they old electric cars were the big leftist scam that's supposed to matter
01:41:33.900
when an ev and their battery has a massively larger carbon and energy footprint to create
01:41:40.780
than a normal internal combustion engine car and i've recently built a car that has a lower carbon
01:41:47.100
footprint per mile on straight diesel alone than an ev does national average and i'm one guy in a
01:41:53.340
quonset hut built the car for about 30 grand we are being manipulated lied to and controlled and
01:41:59.740
that's what these data centers are this is the final boss in the final straw i like the term it's
01:42:04.940
the final boss it kind of is in a way actually uh if if it arose arises to i mean ideally you don't let
01:42:13.660
the boss you know gather his weapons in front of you while you wait right but um let's be honest and
01:42:22.940
let's be frank about this uh me nor you watching are going to stop this we're talking about massively
01:42:28.940
influential people with hundreds of billions at their disposal that control governments and
01:42:32.700
tell people what to do and they bribe them and they blackmail them and they scam them and they
01:42:37.420
convince them and uh it's going to happen it's going to roll out you can argue and we consider all
01:42:42.940
they argue about the effectiveness of their weapon uh but that doesn't mean they're not going to try
01:42:47.740
to build it okay so it's going to be the final boss yes but the thing that burns me up is ohio is my
01:42:54.700
home my state i care about the people i care about the land i care about the animals i care about the
01:43:03.420
environment i care about the i do too exactly yes i agree i i do i do as well i'm actually an
01:43:09.900
environmentalist at heart and i think all this development is fucking ruining everything and
01:43:14.220
they're cutting down the forest and they're raising the ground and you know everything uh
01:43:18.540
you can argue the grid structure of the farms even that that's detrimental too right to feed
01:43:23.100
all these people whatever but still at least that did something and produced something now you're just
01:43:28.060
talking about a mechanism of digital control which eventually will become physical or you or you will
01:43:32.780
your biological identity will merge with your digital one wasn't that the klaus schwab motto or whatever
01:43:39.340
and the farmers and the workers and everybody and our sick gutless pussy politicians by the way
01:43:48.700
pussy is short for pusillanimous which means a weak man our gutless loser politicians think it's a
01:43:55.660
prestige project project where we won't collect any taxes and we're basically subsidizing all of the
01:44:03.820
electricity to create the things that will enslave us oh basically but it's more than that it's kind of
01:44:11.420
simplified but that basically boils it down yes it's an arms race for data computing of the financial system
01:44:19.420
bitcoin data currency it doesn't exist it's not a real thing it's not gold it's not silver it's not a
01:44:27.820
product it's not even labor there's nothing there but if you impose it on people it's real in the sense
01:44:38.220
that it has an effect on people right which makes this kind of interesting turns into the the realm of
01:44:43.580
some you know kabbalistic wizardry basically humanity is chasing something and building
01:44:50.300
power power grids and power generations and creating massive heaters of our waterways and our land and
01:44:56.540
destroying people's lives for nothing for the bullshit game of currency for numbers on a computer
01:45:05.180
screen that don't fucking exist meanwhile all the people of toledo ohio area perrysburg perrysburg
01:45:14.220
township bowling green ohio our electricity bills will skyrocket because of demand isn't that
01:45:23.260
interesting nowadays we're all getting smart meters on our homes and businesses
01:45:31.420
what happens one winter when the electric grid can't handle it and we the people are second rate
01:45:38.700
to these goddamn data centers and we lose the power which now costs 25 to 50 percent more than it did
01:45:47.020
because we're subsidizing this while they don't pay taxes to billions of trillions of dollars worth of
01:45:55.020
power in silicon valley owned by evil nerds that have giant bunkers in places like hawaii or new zealand
01:46:01.980
true story but our gutless loser politicians have just sold all of us out the entirety of ohio
01:46:08.380
what are we going to do vote are we going to tweet about it oh i'm sorry it's x are we going to excrete
01:46:15.660
about it we're going to make a youtube video are we going to go to war the right way with politicians
01:46:22.860
or is it too late no now he's fed posting the other thing is they're all military targets that that's true
01:46:30.620
they actually are each and every one is a military target with no defense you want that you want a
01:46:38.780
giant world bullseye next to your town in your house that saps more power than the entirety of
01:46:45.500
the town that you have to pay for meanwhile when the entirety of the economy and politics and everything
01:46:51.020
is so hyper critical and inflated and insane and fake and we're being pushed around that nobody can make
01:46:56.940
a living or build a business anymore we're supporting this the thing with these evil tech bros
01:47:04.060
that will manipulate us and mine us for every data you think these evil nerds care one shred about you
01:47:11.740
me an animal a tree or anything of the land at all fuck nature move it all down or how about our
01:47:20.540
gutless pathetic politicians that say nothing about this and do nothing about it while they let
01:47:25.740
bavek ramaswamy an actual anchor baby whose parents are from india that got his college scholarship
01:47:34.060
paid for by george soros money basically a guy that's been considered terrorists around the world
01:47:41.180
and banned from countries because he manipulates countries and screws them up so much to trade
01:47:45.740
currency and become worth billions of dollars that's the money that supported bavek ramaswamy
01:47:51.660
the guy who then bought the rights to a failed pharmaceutical drug that maybe kind of helps
01:47:57.420
with memory loss that they can tout as a cure for alzheimer's and he can basically do a rug pull and
01:48:03.260
cash out with 130 plus million dollars so they can manufacture a rich guy a guy that's connected to people like
01:48:11.180
peter thiel the somewhat disfigured looking homosexual man that's connected with the cia and palantir
01:48:17.900
which is the program that trump's giving just a massad in a perfect red carpet to to use ai to commit
01:48:25.340
consider every data point to be able to enslave us to ensure that there will be no more government
01:48:30.780
anymore no more direction no ability to lead yourself or control or fight back in any way
01:48:36.060
yeah true all true um a little simplified but yes all true uh okay last uh portion here
01:48:42.620
is about to get mad everyone leveraging our land destroying our beautiful ohio river destroying lake
01:48:51.500
erie which already has a problem with heavy metals and you can't even eat the fish safely entirely
01:48:57.500
but we're going to do this and then we're going to build more power plants and bigger and more
01:49:03.900
powerful ai to enslave everybody i'm not effing kidding what do you think's gonna happen
01:49:09.820
every kid every adult and old person are addicted to these damn things just looking at them all day
01:49:15.980
when you have that level of untold dystopian sci-fi computing power that we're being patsied into
01:49:22.540
bill to enslave us what do you think it's gonna do oh oh it's gonna cure diseases give me an effing
01:49:29.820
break big pharma already has cures for diseases but they bookshelf those so they never see the light
01:49:36.140
a day and only sell the drugs that treat symptoms this was never to help any of us and it's time
01:49:42.300
each and every one of us wake up to what's really going on because we have to stand and fight and
01:49:48.540
we're gonna fight the right way first and foremost and then when it all goes to hell you stupid sons
01:49:53.660
of bitches don't know what's in store look at each and every one of these homes around the data center
01:49:59.180
within a quarter mile radius or right next to them and those people's lives are destroyed
01:50:03.980
they're not independently wealthy they don't have a summer home up north in vermont and a winter home
01:50:10.460
in scottsdale arizona and florida so they don't have to pay state income taxes so they can say they
01:50:15.260
live in florida 52 of the year they live here and this data center is literally going to destroy their
01:50:23.020
lives hot air humming noxious fumes what if they have to put in giant turbines that burn petroleum just to
01:50:30.380
create more electricity to do it all those people's lives are wrecked their property value is
01:50:36.380
shit everybody that lives in bowling green ohio it's a beautiful little town or perrysburg ohio we have
01:50:43.340
to pay for the electricity is there any business owners out there any real americans real ohioans
01:50:49.420
that want to do it i'll fight it i'll risk it i'll tell the truth all right anyway i think there's enough
01:50:55.660
for that but yeah no i mean he's he's his anger is justified for sure he's seeing it he see he sees
01:51:01.180
what's coming basically yeah i was looking up real quick how's uh how's vivek polling in uh
01:51:08.860
in ohio as the mayor i can't find any like actual good numbers um is he gonna get in
01:51:15.500
he called some poll ludicrous because he puts some damn candidate first or something um
01:51:25.340
oh really vivek 49% voshar amy acton was that the only is there only two is that finalized i i would
01:51:33.420
assume they have an internal like republican thing first right has he been picked as the prime candidate
01:51:39.500
that would be interesting because yeah because that is true he is a representative of of what they want
01:51:44.540
there right 50 49 so he's polling higher right now than uh the other one does and not that that's
01:51:52.300
any different to be honest they're all they're all the same uh okay well so we you might be you might
01:51:57.980
be getting uh a jeet for governor ohio albert let me do the super chat right here here thank you so
01:52:06.460
much albert holy smokes huge support as always thank you so much albert he says hi henry going to watch
01:52:11.180
this later still at work hope you're all doing well take care you as well albert thank you so much
01:52:15.500
for your support i appreciate it uh we are going to begin wrapping up right there i hope you've learned
01:52:21.500
something new this is just yet another uh variable uh in the threat landscape ladies and gentlemen
01:52:27.660
uh but something that's rolling out uh across the us it's beginning in other countries of course too
01:52:32.940
china's building their data centers and shit like this too uh but it's a real uh real problem
01:52:38.540
real big problem um and you're going to see much more of that and the ai adoption is about four
01:52:44.700
times faster than the internet and so as that rolls out as they realize that uh basically this is the way
01:52:50.460
to uh go when it comes to control uh it's not going to stop anytime soon and it's about to get a lot
01:52:56.700
worse and you're probably going to see a lot more farmland a lot more forest or woods or trees or nature
01:53:01.260
parts being just you know bulldozed down essentially to make way for these monstrosities in order to
01:53:07.180
control you okay that's what it's basically is about it's about control uh and it's time for
01:53:15.260
people to figure that out essentially uh all right guys we're gonna wrap up here shortly thank you so
01:53:20.700
much for joining us today we'll be back here soon obviously with more uh flashback friday is next up on
01:53:26.860
the docket join us for that and of course in about a week after that we get halloween we're doing a
01:53:31.980
little halloween stream on friday as well uh i guess kind of uh focus on something a little
01:53:37.660
different uh blow off some steam and have some fun uh in terms of not covering some of the serious
01:53:43.900
bullshit uh that's going on right now out there because uh yes it is it is pretty bad actually
01:53:50.780
unfortunately i wish i could bring you good news about that but it's uh it's it's not i'm not gonna
01:53:54.700
lie to you the data centers have to be shut down uh but it's not going to happen so the approach is
01:54:02.220
okay if that's not going to happen how do you deal with it right what do you do how do you how do you
01:54:06.460
how do you put yourself in a situation where you do not become dependent on the technology because
01:54:11.020
most people will and they will be uh sleepwalking right into it uh another trap essentially uh all
01:54:16.540
right guys before we wrap up here i want to say thank you to our executive producers today
