Meta (Facebook) is destroying 2500 acres of farmland in Louisiana to build a Mega Data Center. The AI Takeover is here.
Someone explain to me why all this monster AI data Center construction all over America. So ChatGPT can process AI requests?
On a quiet patch of former farmland in northeastern Louisiana, a fleet of excavators has leveled more than 2,000 acres of reddish clay earth. This is rural Richland Parish, once a floodplain tangled with meandering bayous and wild canebrake where black bears still wander and a quarter of the 20,000 residents live below the poverty line.
Enter Meta---the sixth-largest company in the world by market cap. The tech giant is keen on making Richland home to its wildest AI aspirations—courtesy of a tremendous amount of new gas-fired power. The region has ample land and sits adjacent to Louisiana’s huge Haynesville Shale gas field.
In December, construction began on Meta’s biggest-yet data center: a $10 billion complex of nine buildings, housing bank upon bank of servers that will take up over 4 million square feet, an area larger than Disneyland.

Do we need what they are pushing?
“However, this week, any chance of that Chinese dream was set back a long way - when Fractal moved the contents of several data center server clusters, to a single Apple Mac Studio - about the size of a small shoe box - proving intelligence at the edge, without a data center is now possible.” https://fractalcomputing.substack.com/p/apple-studio-and-fractal-crush-chinese
Yes this more power or storage in less space is real and is in hyper drive, however, what they are doing is building the " new data center " and outfitting it with the newest, fastest, largest. These centers go up quick. Then they bounce back to the old one and retro fit it. We don't need what they are pushing at all. What they are pushing is called POPULATION REDUCTION. Its masked as the new shiny thing here to help.
