most of that ‘hundreds of billions’ isn’t going to go towards the tech or infrastructure, it’s gonna go to people. a very small number of specific individuals.
correct, US taxpayer is being fleeced so some parasites can live their best lives.
Incorrect. They can already do that without more money.
correct.
hell, i could live my ‘best’ life off of musk’s ‘sofa cushion’ money:
$2.5m is more than enough for me to live on just using investment proceeds–in perpetuity.
$2.5m to him (with ~ $436b) is the equivalent of fifty-seven cents to someone with $100k (in the bank, investments, retirement, home equity, etc). now, i don’t have $100k, not even close. just using it as an example here. my equivalent would be more like half a cent.
They’re mentally ill IMO. Like that old person hoarding vacuum cleaners, diapers, dogfood, etc.
The most infuriating thing is that for them it’s just a number, for society it stifles innovation and wellbeing.
Project Stargate is funded via private investment, the US hasn’t pledged any money
who is providing interest free loans so that microshit can have electric for their data centers?
Sure but a 68.4 million tax break is nothing compared to the hundreds of billions pledged privately
hundreds of billions pledged privately
I trust u bro 🤡
It is beautiful how the US is never short on cash for state aid to enrich some owners.
But god forbid plebs ask for a good train, that’s communism!

Socialism for common people: communism, thus the devil!
People here forgot that Xi personally writes for Fortune
And? China is ahead of us in a lot of areas, especially military drone tech. They got shit we’re still trying to get to work, and they just launched their first drone aircraft carrier. As an added bonus, when the US Navy tried war games against drone swarms, they found they were only able to stop the attack from destroying ships half the time.
People need to start taking China seriously when it comes to tech, because they haven’t been fooling around. When it finally comes around to us fighting them, we’re gonna have a lot of nasty surprises to deal with.
Anyone who thinks this was about getting AI working was the idiot from the start, there still isn’t even a real use-case for it. This was always about funneling huge amounts of money from the government budget to a bunch of rich assholes. The outcome doesn’t matter at all here.
there still isn’t even a real use-case for it
There are several real use cases for it, it’s just that they’re worth like ten bucks a month to me all together and OpenAI is running at a loss while charging… *checks notes* 200 dollars per month for their top tier model?
We’re Fiscally RESPOSIBLE!
