I wish someone could provide evidence that this would actually lead somewhere. The problem is even if AI isn’t a white whale and actually does achieve the goals that the AI companies are telling us it will achieve. That still leaves us hoping that the AI can actually fix the problem quickly enough that the extra power that we required in order to create it, doesn’t cancel out any benefit it can create.

I’ve yet to see anyone provide any evidence to suggest that this will necessarily be the case.

Also given the fact that AI companies are taking over nuclear power stations I’m not seeing much evidence of shackling going on.
