The problem is nobody knows which ones are crypto, true data centers or a combination of them both. Both will be a huge burden to society. Why are they coming to states like ND? It’s not because of cheap reliable electric rates. It’s because our dumb ass elected officials are so gullible and on the take that it’s just too easy for them. They’re certainly not going to states where there’s friction

They’re putting them in cold climates due to lower to zero cooling costs 3/4 of the year. Big $ savings.

My biggest concern with AI is how do you keep criminals from using it for nefarious purposes?

 

[Browneye]

My biggest fear is the govt using it to keep a boot on our neck. Neither outcome is great.

What these new large data centers are for is using AI to train AI. These AI agents are doing nefarious things on their own. Stuff that they were not supposed to do. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/24/openai-agent-hacked-australian-government-website-.html

This explains some of the recent incidents of AI going rogue:
