A note on data centers in New Mexico reminds one resident of the opposition to the industrial revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries. People then feared change, just as people today fear change. The natural reaction is to fight to keep the status quo, but it is impossible to stop the rise of an idea or concept whose time has come.
AI data centers will be built, and they will not be stopped. The course of action that makes most sense is to manage the process, not try to stop it. It makes more sense to have these centers built in America as opposed to China, India, or the EU.
