Today no one has the I(Intelligence) part of AI. They are all gambling with their mountains of debt, that they will be the ones to succeed at creating true AGI.
What they have, are Massive Automation Machines which they are marketing and selling as AI. Which require huge data centers and the supporting vendors.
If/when AGI does happen, I doubt it will require hundreds of huge centralized data centers.
What? is each robot going to be bound to communicating with a data center for every little fork in the logic.
And if that is true? What does that tell you about all the current AI companies and their hundreds of current/future data centers?
But then I am a nobody from no where, so my opinion(guess) should be weighted accordingly.
