🚨 JUST IN: JD Vance helps to clarify President Trump's stance on data centers, highlighting his desire for data centers to put power BACK into the grid "I think probably 99% of the backlash to data centers has come in areas where building a data center means higher utility and higher electricity for the people on the ground." "If you build a data center, you should be putting power back into the grid, not taking it out, and if that is happening, I don't think the data centers are that controversial."

🚨Byron Donalds says Floridians should EMBRACE data centers. “You're going to have data centers. We need to embrace that, not run away from that. We have actual land in our state that is still pristine, available to use. We can build up that stuff. I would rather build a data center in one of these deals or probably FOUR data centers.”

Sen. Husted blames his constituents for record number of data centers in Ohio: "We just have to realize we're in this world in which we've created the demand. We the people have created the demand for these data centers because we use all of these digital products that it processes, and if we don't want them, then don't use them. I mean, you can go back to the bunny ear antenna on your TV, you don't need a data center. But if you're connected to a wire, you're using the data center. So, understand, when we look in the mirror, we are the problem."

ASML CEO on Elon Musk's Data Centers in space and Terafab: "I think you need a certain amount of data centers and they will be in space, they will be on the earth. I think the discussion about data centers in space is to address another potential bottleneck in the ecosystem, which is energy. I think the discussion around putting data center in space is there because if you do that, the energy consumption or the energy availability will be there, about trying to solve another potential big issue, which is energy for data center. I think the Terafab is an example of a major fab project."

We have a real problem with these so called "experimental data centers" They will drive up your electric bills, jeopardize our water supply, and are so loud you will hear them 24/7. I want to be clear. I am not going to regulate data centers, I am not going to reform data centers; as Florida Governor, I will reject and remove every data center in our state.

Are Data Centers Worth the Noise to Local Communities? "Multiple cities of people have filed lawsuits and complaints against these data centers because of the noise." "The first question I ask myself is, are we gonna need data centers in America? Yes, if we wanna compete in the modern world, in the modern economy, we are going to need them. They are good for society and good for the economy."

So I have a question. If this is indeed data center equipment, as it appears to me, are they paying for the police escorts? How much do we know about these data centers, and who thinks they are a good thing?

If chips, models, networks & agent architectures all become dramatically more efficient.. Do we still really need $50-100 Billion data centers? "I think you're gonna see this new wave of companies that are doing distributed data centers. These data centers are mid-size. It's gonna be even more important as you go into this agentic world because you're not dealing with a single model and a single prompt. These agents are orchestrating with each other."

Taylor Lorenz on the data center backlash: "I went on Eric Newcomer's podcast recently, because I'm in this community group in LA, and they found out that there's a data center in downtown LA. It's not a hyperscale. The comments are like, this is why I've been feeling off, or my dog has cancer." "That's not to say that there aren't serious environmental concerns with Colossus and some of these. Construction can disrupt the water table. Okay, but let's have an actual conversation about it." "Everybody has lost the plot. There's no nuance, and if you talk to a lot of these people, they can't even explain what a data center is." "A lot of the outrage about the data centers is coming from people that live in Brooklyn. You're feeding people slop and chum, and you're not moving these issues forward, and we're not talking about sustainable ways to build it." Taylor Lorenz Taylor Lorenz

James Fishback says Byron Donalds is LYING about data centers! Says this has nothing to do with China and it’s all about GREED. “There are 4,200 data centers in the United States. There are 470 in China. We've already won the AI war. My grandfather was a computer science major at Florida Atlantic University about 30 minutes south of here in Boca. And he would tell you that in the 1970s and 80s, computers were the size of Costco warehouses and now those same computers fit in our pocket. Why are we building an AI data center that in five years is going to be obsolete, is going to be one one hundredth of the size. And so I fear it's because a lot of the big land developers want to buy up cheap land, flip it for the next AI data center. So it's a greedy thing. It's a greed thing. And I don't want that to happen in our state because you know what? If you buy something and you screw up, you can return it. You could sell it. If you pave over citrus groves or the Everglades or a wetlands to build the data center, you cannot easily undo that. And so I don't want our farmers, I don't want our rural towns to be run roughshod over. My opponent, Byron Donalds, will say, well, what about the AI data center? Don't they have property rights? And I would say to him, what about the property rights of the people who live a hundred feet from the data center? Where there is EMF, where there is audible noise pollution, where there is the potential even for small radioactive waves? What happens in that case? Do they not have property rights? They don't have to live next to something like that.”

I ask myself, “What do I buy that is really the picks and shovels? And what do I buy that is actually a direct ownership of the tech equivalent to, let's say a stable coin or Bitcoin itself?" My conclusion has been if I wanna play the long-term, the next five years or even 10 years in AI, I need to own data centers. I need to own real estate where data centers are built. I need to own power contracts that power the data centers. I've seen this movie so many times before, once you convinced as an investor that this is gonna be here for a while.

Premier of Manitoba in Canada Wab Kinew says the quiet part out loud He’s rejecting data center projects because the real reason behind them is “surveillance capitalism” “We're not gonna move ahead with the data centre — I reject the idea that we have to be slaves to surveillance capitalism in order to participate in the modern economy” “So the message to any company out there should be, if you wanna have a thoughtful, human-centered approach to technology, come to Manitoba 'cause that's what we're interested in” This really should make you wonder about all the thousands of data centers being rapidly put up in America. You don’t need that many data centers for AI… The surveillance state is being built, right now I show in the video there are already hundreds of hyper scale data centers in America where they are either dedicated to, or a portion of them is dedicated to, surveillance of American for things like purchases It’s already happening

That random one? We hate it!" "Alright listen, Diana DeGette, who's represented this district for 30 years in congress, is saying nothing about the data centers because she's in the pocket of corporations. Melat Kiros is gonna fight back with a data center moratorium. She wants to put a stop to these data centers being getting popped up left and right. You guys are stuck between a data center and a Purina factory and that's not good for these little guys back there." "It's poison, yeah." "Do you have a ballot in your house right now?" "I have three."

John: There is a lot of opposition to building in America, broadly. That's just the nature of our society. I was thinking about, what do Americans want to build? Because it's easy to look at the data center stuff and be like, "Well, everyone's against building data centers." I was reflecting on the whole reindustrialization meme this weekend. And I was thinking about the actual knock-on effects of reindustrialization — most people don't want a car factory in their town. I actually think people don't really want change. They don't want things built. Data centers are probably at the bottom of the list. They're the least popular. But people don't want stuff built, generally. There are very few things that people are like, "Yeah, I'd be down for that to be built." People like the status quo. They're happy with things as they are. And they don't like change. People block home construction all the time. Also, permitting and expansion of existing homes. I'm not saying that they're as unpopular as data centers. Data centers are at the bottom. But new housing in communities is like razor's edge. I do think there's an element of like, Americans don't want to build anything.

Samo Burja on why the first real reason to industrialize the moon will be building weapons, not data centers: "Weaponry on the moon might prove surprisingly important. You can build a bunker on the moon. In Earth orbit that's not possible, you'll have a shooting war where the satellites are destroyed pretty quickly." "I'm bearish on stealth technology. Even if there are thousands of things in orbit, it's easy to do a full sweep just by pointing cameras at space. Some photons bounce the wrong way, use some AI, and you get a lock on where that satellite is orbiting." "On the moon, you can go under the surface. You can have launch sites, make drones, make satellites there. That might be where the capability for space warfare truly develops." "I'd bet more on that than AI data centers, because the GPU is about the most complex thing humans have made. There might be a military industrial drive to lunar industrialization." Samo Burja
