Well, and then you're like, oh, the DOJ is saying they've got to drop the lawsuit because this is part of our national security defense.
Well, none of that's in their prospectus.
And by the way, the entire XAI...
thing elon himself said it's a complete train wreck we're rebuilding it i was like well you know if you had like honor integrity you'd say well we'll hand back those government contracts because we just said our product was a complete train wreck right it's like you know so it just it's all corruption i mean corruption yeah i mean you just call it yeah call what it is call it what it is yeah we're living in the in the in the in the greatest kleptocracy of your and my lifetimes
And I want to circle back on that.
Stay tuned for those that are tuning in on that because that deserves some attention.
But as we sort of bounce back and forth, the anthropic data center point you made and this notion of compute, and you made the point the biggest limiting factor in terms of the acceleration is less the chips as important and profound as they are.
It's really about the compute.
And so it gets to the question of
data centers and all the anxiety in data centers which has actually been sort of a leading indicator of one of the reasons people have such animus towards ai because they connect the dots and there's been a few studies dc maryland that 60 of the growth of those uh retail or rather residential utility bills have been attached to the issue of data center growth so where are you and all that i know you've said we blamed ai for everything so the issue of utility costs which have been growing
Yep.
Separate from AI, certainly haven't been benefited.
Yeah, they're not benefiting.
Look, I think that the clear thing for you and other folks to do is say, look, we want to enable data centers that are net very positive contributors to communities.
So, for example, a very easy one is to say, hey, if you're building a massive data center, you have to provision power at like 130%.
And that 30 percent is that's amongst the things that you're contributing back.
Right.
All right.
And and so so and by the way, who should benefit from that?
Well, the local residents who should have a choice whether or not they want that or not.
