A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

The local government sees $$$ (or gets out-and-out bribed) and so they sign off on it. After all, why should they care if some plebeians have their electric bill go up?

To be fair, several local governments have shot these down. One in Arizona just voted 7-0 to not let one in. But they’re so sneaky and so free with money a lot of governments just let them slide in without residents even knowing.
