A floating AI-focused data center might sound outlandish, but there’s more than meets the eye here. We’ll dig into the reasons why.

Of course as concerning as the implications are, a small part of me is thinking “ooooh I can’t wait to see what they create”

    “I am Andrew Ryan, and I’m here to ask you a question. Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? ‘No!’ says the man in Washington, ‘It belongs to the poor.’

    How do Americans feel about this attitude?

      Andrew Ryan does NOT understand Washington at all (prioritizing the poor, lol), nor even American history (slavery, company stores, anti-union legislation, etc).

      But he definitely got the “No!” part right. Whoever that sweaty guy is, the fruits of his labor belong to whoever can monetize it the most inescapably.
