doesnt matter how much money they lose they arent going to stop. this isnt about short term profit. its about control. people are coming to the realization that AI isnt being designed to help humans.
theres alot of reasons why its a net loss and part of that is taking a good chunk of the profitability away from the average human.
at the top they arent losing anything but numbers on a spreadsheet to get this done.
First of all, not enough (especially who use and support them) understand that.
Second of all, the main reason why there's no stopping is because this is about Power Struggle between the Anglosphere and Eastern Bloc. The day China or the US gives up on their Datacenter goals before the other Superpower is the day troops will be enrolled to the front lines. I believe that is how this works, and it's why (other than distracting from the You-Know-Who-files) the elites are INSISTING on this shit.
Did you see what China just did? Trump invested 500b into AI the day after he was inaugurated. China just invested 300b into AI yesterday, after they're probably realizing that the American pace is outpacing them in its current rate, and whoever wins on Digitalization, which China has been ahead with for a decade, gains global favor.
There's CEOs and businesses putting their faith in the chinese market over the one at home, and the AI power battle is a way to show where the "future" is.
And then there's the whole fucking Net-Zero complex. I think everyone loves the environment but Big Tech has co-opted it in their own enshitified way, so that it's the Datacenters that are promised to net-minimize power expenditure, but the thing they didn't tell anybody is that it's the Datacenters that take the reserve energy supply, not OUR electronics. So they're legitimately building to the whole "You'll own nothing and be happy" moment right this second. Xbox's CEO just came out saying "Yeah consoles can't be done traditionally, a new form of console business will be revealed soon". We know what she means. It's "Consoles-as-a-service". It's our "Mini Datacenters", and Cloud-computing, and justification for why these data-centers have been built.
Again, it's THEIR energy supply, not ours, so it's also their Hardware components, we just get to rent it over cloud, and once the datacenters take up an entire city's power grid, too bad, consumer! Your PlayStation and Home PC is against the Net Zero policy. I'm afraid we have to legally enforce everyone to keep their computers plugged out, or we run out of power! Please use your Power-conserving Datacenter machines and keep subscribing, bitches!
There's a lot to this, but I think this is more or less what is really going on. And a whole third aspect of that is indeed Control, which governments are salivating for especially, not just MAGA and their Big Tech cronies. Because any bureaucrat is gonna love taking back the media control they USED to have via Cable TV, from the "mess" of free and democratized online discourse, blaming "Muh algorithms" etc.
In the end they're both in cahoots with each other IMO. There's idealists who are completely bought into Net Zero this and that, animal welfare, but around their backs there's big corporations planning "Tokenization", "Digitalization" and "Claim on Power Grids" and IMHO we're being taken advantage of the entire way. World Economic Forum is almost more "Business Subsidizing Government" than it was "Government Subsidizing business". Our government heads are a bunch of useless tools.
Oh and those Digital IDs, Digital Passports, Age Verification bills etc.? Yeah that too is just gonna be enforced via the whole "Only over cloud, no more home computing" infrastructure.
And it isn't just Trump. This is shit that's been slowly groomed on us via signaling/messaging coming from WEF since Covid.
