Adam Jones reads “AI” politically:

“Data centres function as an increasingly central part of the nervous system of an imperial, techno-capitalist order. Democratic politics holds the right to question their present and future existence.”

ai is a water and power intensive tool for the ruling class to further suppress people and labor movements to their benefit as well as help control who is permitted into the "in-group" for the future.

it's actively accelerating climate change that will result in ending our civilization in the future and, like our captured political process, everyone sits aside and just lets it happen out of fear of being harmed themselves.
