Monologue: The AI Industry Is Lying To You
In this week's Better Offline monologue, Ed Zitron talks about OpenAI killing Sora, and how the majority of announced data centers are either barely getting built or vaporware, with only 3GW of IT load coming online in 2025 in America, and only 5GW of data centers under construction worldwide.This week’s free newsletter: https://www.wheresyoured.at/the-ai-industry-is-lying-to-you/ JustDario’s piece - The Data Center Frenzy Will Be Remembered As The Largest Waste Of Capital In History https://justdario.com/2025/10/the-data-centers-frenzy-will-be-remembered-as-the-largest-waste-of-capital-in-history/ (warning, my man has a lot of ads) Sora burns $15m a day (Forbes) https://www.forbes.com/sites/phoebeliu/2025/11/10/openai-spending-ai-generated-sora-videos/ Save $10 off a year of my premium newsletter: https://edzitronswheresyouredatghostio.outpost.pub/public/promo-subscription/gzqwkv54e1 - I’d be so grateful!
