    Is it because the training/use needs to happen within a single datacenter? Or are they saying that there are not enough data center capacity in total in the world to meet the demand?

      They are saying that taxpayers will need to “pitch in” on the upcoming electric demand surge that requires massive infrastructure investment.

      Because working class peasants is pen’ata, the more you beat it the higher the morale ;)

      also money falls out!

      What they’ll do is they’ll ask for subsidies to build power plants, privatise them, sell the power at increasingly extortionate rates and cut maintenance costs to increase their margins and profits.

      Possibly.

        That’s effectively why Microsoft’s plan to restart Three Mile Island is stalled out. They want it to be paid by taxpayer dollars despite (as far as I know) having no plans to provide the generated electricity to taxpayers.
