Mega corporations should not be allowed to use nuclear power plants purely for themselves.
Also, if you need that much power to do something bthat a human brain does with under 100 watts, I really think you're doing it wrong

Yesssss
I don't give a shit about training AI but the idea of Microsoft running nuclear reactors is hilarious to me. Either they do it well and we all benefit from the knowledge, or Windows goes out with a bang
I guess the nuclear power people are gonna become Microsoft fans... powered by nuclear power.
I'm not one to be all doom and gloom about ai, but giving one its own small nuclear reactor, presumably one that's in close proximity to it and separate from the local power grid... that's obviously going to have substantial security measures around it... and be that much more difficult to cut off if need be....
I mean, it's starting to sound a lot like an unbelievable plot hole in a bad sci fi movie isn't it?
They should call it WOPR for no reason whatsoever.
Anyone fancy a nice game of chess?
Ironic you compare it to a bad sci fi movie and that's exactly where your knowledge is coming from.
