The narrative that we must sacrifice millions of acres of rural farmland for massive AI data centers to "beat China" is a complete myth and is actually weighing us down in our AI development. I sit down with Michael Cation, CEO of Fractal Web and expert in AI software, to dismantle the lies surrounding generative AI, cloud computing, and the massive power- and land-grabs happening in places like Box Elder County, Utah, and Laramie County, Wyoming.Big Tech, foreign land developers, and venture capitalists are using the excuse of "AI dominance" to push through draconian zoning laws, monopolize local utility rates, and drain community resources. But what if the real future of artificial intelligence doesn't require hyperscale data centers at all? Discover how edge computing, narrow AI, and fractal computing provide superior, low-latency tech solutions using devices as small as a Mac Mini — without the devastating economic and physical impacts on American homesteaders and small businesses.If you are tired of the techno-feudalism agenda and the surveillance state, this is the tech reality check you need to hear.
