Reopening Three Mile Island nuclear plant for Microsoft data centers could cost taxpayers $1.6 billion
The amount of energy being consumed by AI is well-documented, which is why many companies in the industry are looking toward nuclear power as a solution.
Nuclear powered AI, if that doesn’t sound like we live in the future I don’t know what does.
Alternatively, ‘Huge corpo wants to siphon government money to reopen nuclear facility years after disaster’ sure sounds like the dystopian version to me.
Either way is quite futuristic! 🥲
Fuck no.
This is corporate socialism of costs and privatization of profits and we have to stop getting fucked this way.
Better said as "tax payers spend 1.6 billion to buy microsoft a new data center"
misleading title.
