Just keep an eye on AI company marketing and advertisement. It's always about some kind of promise to be delivered in some vague future *if* those data centers are built and enough data is extracted from every corner of the internet, including all our private communications etc. The only thing these companies have been able to deliver thus far is putting a lot of software engineers out of work, and create endless amounts of AI slop for Trump to post in the middle of the night.
AI is like Schrodinger's cat: it's both real and a mirage at the same time depending on who's looking at it from what angle. So it creates super high company valuations and billions of dollars of debt simultaneously.
