I always think the logo for this paint company looks like it should be on a 60's propaganda flyer from a "Socialist Workers Party"

They closed the feedback form for the Mount Pleasant data centre rezoning so here's the email I sent instead

I am a Mount Pleasant resident, and I am deeply concerned about the planned AI data centre for my neighbourhood. I'm sure you've heard plenty about the concerns around excess water use by data centres, especially in an area that gets regular water-use restrictions in the summer, and I'm sure you've also been made aware of the over-statement of the effectiveness of "closed cooling systems". There are also serious concerns about persistent noise that people forced to live next to these types of facilities regularly report.

The idea that this will somehow be beneficial for the economy of my neighbourhood in the medium-to-long term is also unconvincing, as aside from the benefits to the construction industry which would be present regardless of the type of building being renovated, data centres create very few persistent jobs beyond a few security guards. For the economy at large, AI has been credibly identified as a bubble based on wild speculation of the value of companies and over-estimations of increases in productivity in order to justify the aforementioned over-valuation. Beyond that, the idea of a "sovereign AI infrastructure" is an artificial arms race sold to countries by NVIDIA in order to sell more graphics cards, and in turn has led to companies scamming their governments with promised capacity in places like the UK. As a former worker in the tech industry and someone who follows this topic closely, what I see is the city wasting valuable resources on what will immediately be a warehouse full of expensive graphics cards fulfilling prompts created by other AI agents for the soul purpose of making it look like these companies are doing something, and will soon be a warehouse full of obsolete graphics cards.
