I have issues with this article, but the point about the environment is interesting.

I have issues with this article, but the point about the environment is interesting.
the author’s Substack bio says “Director of EA DC”
his website explains the acronym - it’s “Effective Altruism DC”
at this point, your alarm bells should start ringing.
but if you are blissfully aware, “effective altruism” is a goddamn scam. it is an attempt by Silicon Valley oligarchs and techbros to wrap “I shouldn’t have to pay taxes” in a philosophical cloak. no more, no less.
take all of his claims about “no bro AI datacenters are totally fine don’t listen to the naysayers” with a Lot’s-wife-sized pillar of salt.
Damn that’s some next level detective work. Thx for the details
Edit: God it just gets worse and worse. I just peeked at the website for his “EA DC” org and their board of directors literally includes an exec from Anthropic. This guy is literally taking money from the AI industry. This article is a complete joke.
Consider mentionning this in the title for those who skip comments.
Maybe “[Likely sponsored by Antropic]”
