    David G: “What happens after the bubble pops? What do we do amongst the wreckage of what was once the AI bubble?”

    Tante: “A question that really concerns me is [the data centres that have been built]; who will they [the future owners of data centres, after the hyperscalers stop paying] turn to, to get their money back? The only entities that I can think of that have the money to make this worth it, is the military, and the security apparatus. […]

    “That is useful for a lot of shit that we don’t want. That is a problem that really concerns me. Who has problems that fit to pattern-matching machines; and who has the money [to pay data centres to address those problems]? And that’s gonna be a lot of military applications, that’s gonna be a lot of security apparatus applications, that we all probably should not want.”

    David G: “That’s wonderfully probable and depressing.”

    Tante: “I’m fun at parties.”
