I'd suggest a 4th piece, though I can't tell if this is an unfounded conspiracy theory or so obvious no one has bothered saying it. I expect we'll learn the push to find a use case for LLMs (and NFTs before that) was significantly driven and funded by fossil fuel companies who saw data centers as a way to maintain demand for their product, after clean energy would otherwise make ffs increasingly superfluous.
@thecorodon @williampietri Plausible. It's generally meant economic expansion, with constructing massive data centers and all the supporting infrastructure. There are a lot of capitalists happily accumulating capital.
