The Three Mile Island Nuclear plant, home of the worst nuclear accident in U.S. history, would restart under a deal in which Microsoft purchases all its power.

👍👍👍

The tax breaks in the Inflation Recovery Act are crucial to making the deal economically feasible, according to Constellation. They provide a credit for every megawatt hour of nuclear energy produced.

lmao so instead of this funding the energy transition it's just subsidizing the AI grift

      People also put a lot of emphasis on the "I" in Artificial General Intelligence. It gives us the impression that we will have some kind of contraption with a button on it, and every time you push the button it conjures up a new, distinct digital agent of Albert Einstein. For a long, long time, at best, these things will conjure your average Redditor. People think if we create AGI we can tell computers to compose Mozart, but we'll be lucky if we get anywhere farther than "I glued my balls to my butthole again."
