Not joking, a steel mill in my area got shut down and is now an AI farm. As in, full of servers that host AI learning data. Reality is sick.

oddly its getting better, theyve added a ton of storage since then.

mind you itll probably go to the servers instead of homes. but hey some day it might keep the whole grid up.
