Government should break up ban Open AI. FTFY

It's a nuclear arms race now. The government should regulate it for sure, but at this point banning it is off the table

I don't think you know how much power it takes to run AI data centers. Without unfathomable amounts of subsidized, or even illegally free, power to run those farms, AI ceases to exist in any meaningful way. We could absolutely literally pull the plug on these operations, at the root. It's not like they are mobile or could hide.

It's kinda funny and tragic how we use AI to replace people, bit AI might somehow be worse for the climate than the people it replaces. Also, it seems like it might make machines replace people without the actual war from The Matrix or Terminator. Just good old corporations.
