And other key insights about the data center protest movement. Plus, Bernie Sanders' AI sovereign wealth fund proposal, Ted Chiang's argument against AI consciousness, and much more.
Ok, I’ve read the article and come back. I have the same question. The only statement that tangents my point is this one:
“The lowest-income, least-educated neighborhoods resist most, even among the low-income, low-degree areas facing proposals,” he adds.
But the variable the article cares most about is what happens to data centers that encounter community resistance, vs ones that don’t. Yes they categorize those 2 groups by income level, but there doesn’t seem to be a chart saying “data centers are 5 times more likely to be proposed in low income areas compared to high ones.”
Not to be a wet blanket, but might that be because data centers are being built in working class neighborhoods at a higher rate than wealthy ones?
Maybe try reading the article before useless speculation on a topic that is clearly outlined in the data provided?

Care to point me in the right direction?
