I am still astounded that not at least ONE journalist or news organization in Sioux Falls hasn’t done a deep dive on Data Centers. It is obvious to me, the cons outweigh the pros. Don’t believe me? Try to find a positive story about Data Centers from a legitimate news source. You can’t find them. Sure there is propaganda put out by the Data Center lobby using social media, but those are paid for stories.
To the degree that we may need them to help develop A.I. for national security reasons and to stay ahead of the Chinese, they should still be built on a national scale with a national plan and not with what seems to be a patchwork strategy between competing A.I. developers.
If we have a national plan, then the costs could be shared evenly, and they could also be placed intentionally in very rural areas away from the population to greatly lessen the noise concerns.
