I mean if you gonna use violence just fight Alt-Man and his villainous brotherhood. Keeping the datacenters will probably spur the economy once they aren’t used for AI anymore and the compute will become available for general use. Like when the internet bubble burst they put way more fiber lines into the ground than they used at the time but eventually the overcapacity came to good use. Scientists are always in need for compute to run their simulations.
Going to take you a lot of time with a soldering iron. These are soldered HBM2 chips, not the DDR DIMMs you want. Still manufactured in the same facilities so they hold up that manufacturing capacity but can’t really be repurposed.
Not even that. The threat of a missile was enough to close the strait of Hormuz. They didn’t need to blow up every ship… Targeting a single ship, alongside an announcement that more is to come, would have been enough. It’s the risk that has the lasting effect, and I think it could only take a single well-motivated person to reproduce those results with data centers.
At this point it’s good for economy when people burn down AI datacenter.

It might burn itself down.
Liberate the RAM first.

Not even that. They’ve bought a lot more storage, memory and GPUs than they have datawarehouses with power to install them in.
They didn’t. They agreed to buy them. With the money that they don’t yet have, and probably can’t ever earn.
Which makes this whole thing so much more insane.
Yes, but line goes up, and by the time it goes down I’m not gonna be holding the bag anyway

Except data centers have already been attacked in this war.
Not on US soil. There’s still a perception that those are safe investments.
