Before we go, please note that EXO is still looking for help. If you also want to avoid the future of AI being locked into massive data centers owned by billionaires and megacorps and think you can contribute in some way, you could reach out.

Unfortunately Biden just signed an executive order allowing data centers to be built on federal land...

And Trump is 100% going to sell it off to the highest bidder and/or give a bunch to Elmo

There's a huge bit of space between "more datacenter space" and "ah well, on-prem and self-host are dead". Like, this is a 2024-voter level of apathy.

Well......hold on a second. I was with you through most of that, but then you said Elmo at the end.

Maybe I'm stupid.....maybe there's another Elmo that makes WAAAAAY more logical sense. But what I'M envisioning is this army of AI Seaseme Street Elmo's harvesting your data, tracking/stalking you all day, and plotting the best time to come and tickle you.

I don't get it. What are you SAYING???
