Dominic and Cymene can't wait to tell you all about the new Nathan Fielder documentary, You Can See Everything. But don't worry, no spoilers. It's our last podcast before Halloween so we bring the scares by welcoming (17:02) Mél Hogan to the podcast to talk about data centers and why AI is such a bad, bad idea. We start hot by talking about why AI ought to be considered an irredeemable fascist project. We turn to how AI underwrites the eugenicist class politics of billionaire oligarchs, the AGI hype machine, the idea of a new Silicon Valley master race, and the general condition of tech enshittification. We wonder whether AI was always secretly the neoliberal endgame and then celebrate the rising resistance to data centers. Mél closes with why she thinks data center resistance is going to be a long struggle but why we should all be there for it. Check out Mél's excellent podcast, The Data Fix here. Hang in there, everyone, peace and love.
