They'd probably lose money on the stocks with the way things are going. It'd let the owners offload risk. The residents are free to use the money to buy stocks if they want to.
They can decide by either keeping the money or using it to buy stocks. At the highest P/E ratio in history and the early signs of a global financial meltdown, I think I'd keep the money - or buy gold, or canned food.
Everyone should get stocks considering AI is trained on everyone's data.
Anthropic's IPO is rumored to be $2T. For the sake of argument let's round it up to 10T to account for openai and any post IPO pop. For the sake of argument let's also assume the US government straight up expropriates any stake existing shareholders have. With those rosy assumptions, you get a whopping $29.4k per American. That's a nice stimmy check (but beware inflation!), but that's less than 2 years of federal government expenses.
I think you're downplaying how much money $29k is to most people. That's 5-10x the total covid stimulus, and it's not as inflationary because it's redistributing wealth, not printing money.
basically. You'd need to build out electricity and network infrastructure and that's not like plugging a cable into a pole. With the amount of power you need voltage substations, transmissions lines, upgrades to the existing grid, land assessments etc.
And obviously with it tons of skilled labor and people that would have to live somewhere.
I’m of the opinion that in order for any tax incentives for datacenters to make sense, communities should pursue direct assistance. A free training program for residents to learn how to use AI effectively, along with a lifetime subscription tier or API credit allocation would be a good start.
Pocket change. They should stocks. Everyone should get stocks considering AI is trained on everyone's data.

An annual recurring payment may honestly be the way to do it.
That's for the recipient to decide

Not enough to even buy them a decent side-by-side anymore.
A Can-Am Maverick R is around $50,000. Crazy money
No the data center needs to pay each citizen of the town a monthly or yearly UBI check. 10k is a joke, especially "if," all our electric bills go up!
10k per year would be a pretty good first attempt at a UBI, given the B is important.
Sure, it's not much money to us, but it's probably a lot of money to most of the voting population.
i approve of the data center, can you please give me a mac studio with max configuration instead of 10000$
I dont understand why data center development is so location specific.
Is it proximity to the city power grids and fiber backbones?
Seems that would be solvable then land is trivial if they go somewhere without objetors
