These “makeshift” structures are housing hardware that costs millions of dollars in total.

“Putting AI servers inside tents, officially called “rapid deployment structures,” is one of the more unique approaches to the AI build-out, Thomas said. They’re certainly not as sturdy as physical buildings made from steel and concrete, with one commenter comparing it to the “classic $10k racing bike with a $9 lock” situation.”

    Help me understand again how there isn’t enough wealth in this world to give everyone healthcare, shelter, and enough food not to starve?

    We are providing housing camps for AI infrastructure, and AI is nothing more than an idea. Meanwhile the suffering of all life on the planet just goes on because a few monkeys just decided this is the way?

        And yet it only goes to very few people. When they don’t pay for basic preventative care, the more complicated issues grow in cost in such a way as to outweigh their “savings”.

        The US is a country that believes that not paying your rent or replacing the batteries in the smoke detector is a fantastic way to save money. Joke country.

      Homeless don’t earn the tech overlords money and they keep the general populace knowing where they could be. It’s bullshit that we give these cunts rope rather than just hanging them ourselves.

        Maybe there needs to be a rebellion not against government but the real overlords…
